what about Screen Time is bad for kids? Is it the sitting around for long periods of time, the content they watch or just staring at a pixelated screen?

There are going to be multiple issues broken into the following categories
* Dangers directly from screen time
* Downsides form not doing something else
Media nowadays, give you massive surges of dopamine very quickly. That means back in everyday life it’s going to be much hard to concentrate on stuff like classes, reading, playing music, etc. So it’s going to be harder to get children/adults to want to spend their time doing more worthwhile and productive activities, since they can get more dopamine from browsing ticktok.
Then also they are less likely to be active. For the brain to work properly and without disease you need to be active an exercising every day. That’s simply not happening if they are spending time on ticktok rather than out cycling with friends, or whatever.
