New York Times Under Fire Over Article Suggesting Rise in Gaming During the Pandemic Is Concerning



?I?ve failed you as a father,? reads a quote from a dad-of-the-year in a New York Times article that expresses concern about increased screen time during the pandemic. He?s upset with his son because he spends too much time on his console.
The article in question, published both in print and online for maximum visibility, is understandably being panned left and right. For some bizarre reason, activities that have brought millions around the globe together during unprecedented times, is ?alarming parents and scientists? because once the world is back to normal, there will be some ?epic withdrawals.? To give NY Times some credit, the publication did quote professionals, like a professor of psychology at Stanford University, and a pediatrician at the University of Michigan who wishes she had advised parents to ?turn off Wi-Fi except during school hours so kids don?t feel tempted every moment, night and day? to be on their consoles playing Fortnite, or wasting time on Roblox, or watching silly videos on TikTok ? you get the picture (sorry for the run-on sentence).
