Parents' Digital Device Use Harms Children's Emotional Development, Study Finds

Kathmandu. Excessive use of mobile or other digital devices by children has been a cause for concern. But a new study has shown that the problem is not just with children, but parents' screen use can also be harmful to their mental and emotional development.

According to a recently published study, children who feel their parents are always busy with mobile or other digital devices are more likely to develop insecure emotional bonds. Researchers say this can have long-term effects on their self-confidence, social relationships, and emotional health.
