No screens before age of two, Swedish health authority tells parents

Guidelines also stipulate teenagers should have no more than three hours of screen time a day

Children under the age of two should not be exposed to any screens whatsoever and teenagers should have no more than three hours of screen time a day, according to guidelines announced by health authorities in Sweden.

Parents and guardians should think about how they use screens with their children and tell them what they are doing on their phones when they use them in their presence, the advice says.
