Well yeah. If I was blocked off from communication with everyone, of course I would be anxious. There's a difference between the security in having your phone on you, and using it all the time.

Its communication that harms young brains. Kids should never have unrestricted access to the internet.

not really. kids need communication, as well as adults: since humans are such social animals. what harms young people more is stuff that decreases attention span, unrealistic body expectations, etc not "communication"
