MELAMUD, Ariel  y  WAISMAN, Ingrid. Screens: discrepancy between recommendations and actual use. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2019, vol.117, n.5, pp.349-351. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2019.349.

The use of electronic devices with screens and the early introduction in small-age children present a challenge that must be recognized by the pediatrician, who must contribute to avoid the excess in their use. We have detected a manifest discrepancy between the ideal recommendations and the actual use of screens in young children. Correct counseling within a family context, with stronger evidence on the long-term impacts of the use of digital technology, will allow pediatricians to adequately provide support to families.
