Children using social media at younger age perform worse in school tests, study says: What Indian parents need to know
According to new findings, early exposure to social media—starting at ages eleven or twelve—can detrimentally affect school performance, especially in areas such as math and Italian. This adverse effect carries on through the teenage years, with frequent phone checking identified as a key issue, rather than excessive screen time itself. Parents are encouraged to postpone social media introduction and monitor its usage to foster better academic results.
