I don't consider that instinct emotion, untill there is more intelligence behind it. Not the baby crying because of the new lack of a large elephant shaped creature.

I'm still skeptical. Of course this also depends on your definition of emotion. Thanks to evolution, pretty much any baby will start crying in response to certain situations(hunger, discomfort, no presence of something resembling the mother, presence of something resembling what it's instincts tell it to avoid, etc....)

My conclusion is that they still get handled way too inappropriately. I'd say that gradual introduction to useful functions could begin at age 7 or 8. Pretty much everything you just mentioned can be done non electronically, without creating an over reliance on these devices. Sure people could use them responsibly, but they don't. They're just pacifiers that screw up the kids in the long run.

Even humans feel nothing at that stage. It's just instinct. Perhaps, the beginnings of emotion but not the thing itself.

I read that somewhere. I don't care enough to prove it. If you're that interested, look it up yourself. And as anyone whose ever used one would know, devices are extremely addicting. I can't think of any possible good reason for a kid to be using a phone, tablet, etc.... Basically, there are no pros and a bunch of cons.

I highly doubt that's why it was crying. Even baby humans can't comprehend stuff like that.

Kids shouldn't use smartphones because, A: this can have a negative impact of focus, B: overuse of devices can lead to posture problems, and C: it facilitates extreme inactivity and disinterest in anything outside of their screen.

They're all huge douchbags. They just phase between what they claim their action was.
