New York City Council members argue that proposed limits on student screen time fall short of addressing broader concerns about technology use in schools. Critics say the restrictions focus too narrowly on devices during class hours without tackling after-school habits or the mental health impacts of excessive screen exposure. Some lawmakers push for stronger policies to encourage healthier digital boundaries for students. The debate highlights tensions between balancing education technology and protecting young learners from potential overuse.
