screen time as the sole hobby

When being in front of screens, e.g. doomscrolling on your smartphone for hours on end, now becomes the only hobby your have. This is because screen time has made you lose the interest on the hobbies you once enjoyed, hence you now prone to missing important things in life.

Ever since I got a new iPhone, I experience the phenomenon of screen time as the sole hobby; I spend hours doomscrolling and completely ignore my old passions like painting and hiking. It’s like I’m missing out on life while stuck in a digital bubble.

screen time

The opportunity to negotiate for extra hours of screen time from parents, akin to spotting parking spaces for a driver. It requires keen observation and timing to seize the moment when parents are less vigilant or distracted.

My little brother has mastered the art of screen time; he knows exactly when Mom is busy and swoops in for an extra hour of gaming on Roblox!
