A new study examines how parental technoference — the interruption of parent-child interaction by device use — affects children's emotional development.

Many adolescents reported feeling neglected when their parents were absorbed in their phones. The findings underscore the broader impact that parents' screen habits can have on their children's overall emotional well-being.
