According to child psychiatrist Anne Kleinberg, internet addiction is a significant issue that warrants increased attention. Kleinberg notes that children who struggle with internet addiction frequently exhibit signs of anxiety and aggression. “If parents are addicted to smartphones, they often cannot help their children from falling into the same trap,” she stated.

“As a result, the vital parental care that is necessary in social and emotional terms is often lacking, just like in the case of any other addiction.” Kleinberg identifies parenting behavior and hygiene as one of the biggest influences on children, and acknowledges that children often display these symptoms when struggling with addiction.
