Parents apparently need screen time supervision as well

The modern parent seems to be a case of evolution gone wrong.

It's plain to see, after all, that anyone supervising children needs three arms, not two - one to barely hold or corral a squirming kid and, much more important, two to gingerly cradle and scroll or type on a smartphone.

As the debate grows over how much screen time is healthy for children, we don't hear so much discussion about how much parental screen time is healthy for youngsters.
