Rejected petition Mandatory limit for screen time for children under 10.
To bring in a mandatory screen time limit for all children under the age of 10.
More details
Screens are harmful to our children, we have an epidemic of children who have no attention span, speech and language delays and are addicted to screens. Children should not require a screen for the in between or waiting for everyday things. That downtime, while easier for parents to just throw a screen in front of their kid, is actually a crucial life skill for children to learn.
