Are Teenagers Developing Grandma Necks?

You expect your teen to slouch—but what if their screen time is actually reshaping their spine?

Today’s kids spend more than 7 hours a day on devices—mostly with their heads tilted forward and shoulders hunched. This can lead to early signs of neck degeneration, tension headaches, poor concentration, and even mood issues.

Here’s what many parents miss:

-Headaches or “fog” after screen time

-Slouching posture or a noticeable neck bump

-Irritability that flares up during homework

-Tight shoulders and neck pain, even in kids under 15
