Islamic perspective
Screens aren't forbidden, but filling the mind is a trust. What children consume shapes what they think. Choose with the same intent as choosing halal food.
If just one line
It's not the screen that's bad for kids. What's bad is when the screen replaces the parent's voice at home.
