Our class is writing an opinion piece on if we think kids are having too much screen time and you think that kids should be limited on screens, or if everything is ok and you think it should stay the same, or if you think that kids should have more screen time.

My opinion on this topic is i think kids have too much screen time and they should be limited on screens. I think they should be limited on screens because if you are always just on your tablet or phone or tv, then you could be missing out on other things that are fun or important. for example, if your parents ask you if you wanted to stay home while they go to a meeting, or if you wanted to go along, and if you pick to stay home and be on screens when they are gone then they could do something fun without you when they are done with the meeting.

Another reason why you should be limited on screens is because if you be on screens for a very long time, say a couple of hours like 2 or 3, it could mess up your eyesight. Kind of like when you go outside and it is really sunny, (not that this would mess up your eyesight) and then when you come inside after a while, then it seems like the house is really dark. And if you stay on screens for a long time, then if you look away, then your eyes feel really weird, and they kind of hurt.

Another reason why you should be limited on screens is because if you are on screens all the time, then you would miss all the other things that are going on in life. Sometimes it is a good thing to miss other things in life, but sometimes it is a bad thing. Like if something really terrible just happened it is better not to know about it. But if something very good just happened, then you would probably want to know about it. That is my opinion.
