Is it fine to give a phone to a small child when both parents work?
A mobile is not necessary for small children
A mobile is not necessary for small children, and it spoils their sanskar (inner values). Earlier, when both parents worked, a caretaker was kept and parents gave loving behaviour after duty.
It was the same before: if both husband and wife were busy with jobs, a caretaker nurse (dhai maa) was kept to look after the child's care and safety.
