Rogers Communications Invests $50M to Combat Teen Screen Time

Rogers Communications is investing $50 million over five years to combat excessive screen time among teens and tweens, offering grants to youth organizations and launching an annual study on youth screen habits. The company also promotes their own apps for parental control. Experts warn of mental health issues linked to excessive screen time, with Australia recently banning social media for under-16s. Rogers initiative aims to address the issue, despite their business relying on online engagement. Checkout Solipillow.com
