Esther McCarthy: I spent 9 hours and 59 minutes on a single app last week

I think I’ll just get ‘hypocrite’ tattooed across my forehead and be done with it.

My house has often devolved into arguments about screentime, and I am far from immune to the doomscroll

I don't know if you can relate, but the main arguments in our house (at the moment) are about screen time. I worry about my kids being plugged in too much.

Two have phones, the other fella is still in the fun IRL stage and is currently working on fashioning a scooter that can go on the trampoline without tearing it, because really, two trips to the emergency department in the last couple of weeks just isn’t enough, he’s going for the hat trick.
