Show Notes
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer plans to implement stricter guidelines on childrens screen time, aiming to limit daily usage to one hour for under fives and ban it entirely for under twos, except during family activities. Officials are also considering age restrictions for gaming sites and AI chatbots, as well as curbs on addictive designs. The move comes as nearly ninety-eight percent of two-year-olds already watch screens daily, with experts warning of negative impacts on language skills and school readiness. Health leaders support the advice, emphasizing the importance of screen-free meals, bedtimes, stories, and games. Stronger protections for young users are expected to follow.
