Yea it’s the same for us, the complaints from people when they see a kid in public on a tablet are weird to me cause I know as kids we always had stuff like toys we brought into restaurants (or we went to restaurants with like coloring maps and stuff).
Parents have been desperately trying to find things to occupy kids while they’re in public so they don’t disturb the people around them for years and now that smart phones/ipads are universal it seems like there’s finally something that will just keep the kids quiet for awhile without a lot of effort.
I think it’s important to pay attention how much you/your kids are spending on “screen time” but it feels really disingenuous to say stuff like the current generation is cooked because of ipads.

I can understand if they’re blasting the audio out from the tablet and disrupting everyone else but if they’re not I don’t get what’s the fuss.
