Well, if kids really want anything be sweets, a toy or more screen time they will beg. That's kid's nature ;)

It's the parents job to be firm and establish some limits, making sure they are respected.

I think OP meant to say just like kids beg for chocolates which they crave for, they also beg for Screen time (which seems to be a bad addiction for someone who's a kid) that also shows how much screen time as an addiction or interest has penetration through that age group.

Can't wait to raise my kids in a small village away from all this city/tech/social garbage.
