Emmanuel Macron wants to limit the screen time of young people

It has become the remote control of our lives: we never leave our cell phone, we fall asleep with it, we wake up with it. It gets everywhere, even at the table, and when we can’t find it, it’s distressing. It can even put us at risk. Not to mention the hours we spend with our eyes glued to the screen. In the metro, the cell phone has become an essential travel companion. And according to a recent study, this hyperconnection can cause us to develop new disorders.

Degrade emotional relationships

“It is not serious in the sense that we can understand it when we are addicted to alcohol or opiates, but it can degrade the quality of the emotional relationships that we can have with those close to us”details Professor Amine Benyamina, head of the psychology and addictology department at the Paul-Brousse University Hospital.
