I have nothing else to say rn.

“Kids want a real tablet, not a toy,” the Jeff Bezos-founded company said in a press release

An almost verbatim line from Toy Story. Incredible. Only the main character was quite a bit older than 3.

If shitty parent's don't care about well-being of their children, they could at least consider the cost of future medication, not to even mention likely worse performance in school and job market.

PS to parents: give your child a toy or a book not a tablet ffs.

Yeah sometimes you want your kid to not scream the whole time in the car or on a 6 hour flight where everyone will hate you. My 4 year old niece once screamed for the entirety of a 30 minute car ride because she didn't like what color socks she was wearing, you can't talk yourself out of these absurd situations sometimes and distractions help. I'd love to give a book in these situations, but half the time it just gets thrown at your head.

Why does no one say "parents need more time and space" or "parents need help making effective choices in a world that constantly demands more of them" everyone loves crawling out of the woodwork to tell you how horrible you are.

One product design that concerned me was the handle — like it’s intended to be carried around like a briefcase

Has the extra benefit of getting them ready for the workforce. /s
