    You don’t have children and have no plans so let me let you in on a little parenting secret:

    Never tell other people how to parent their children.

    I’m not gong to bother touching the idea you’ve got in your head that social media is an addictive substance but tv and movies are not not the idea that tech withdrawal is anything like drug withdrawal.

      This comment would be better without the “I’m not gong to bother touching the idea you’ve got in your head” bit. It comes across as passive aggressive, and could be replaced with “It doesn’t make sense to me” or similar without loss of meaning.

      We’re trying to foster chill conversation in this community, because there’s plenty of other places online and on Lemmy for charged discussion.

        This comment would’ve been a lot better without the insult. It had a good response, but starting any reply with “Fuck off”, even if you felt insulted first, leads to yelling matches, which isn’t what we’re going for here
