    I don’t understand how it correlates. The article isn’t saying that children of parents who use social media are more likely to be addicted to social media, it’s saying that parental controls aren’t helping stop social media addiction in children. So how does that smoker analogy make sense?

      I can’t imagine how “parental supervision” could exist without understanding how to use what they are supervising.

        You don’t need to know how to use social media to set up the Apple parental controls that put time restrictions on certain apps.
