Jaaved Jaaferi recalled asking his younger son Abbas to sit and watch the sunset. The actor noted that the child could not remain still for ten minutes. He contrasted this with his elder son Meezaan, who grew up with fewer screens. Jaaved said constant exposure to fast digital images may reduce patience in young people. He described how screens present 24 to 30 frames per second, while real life moves more slowly. Psychologists note that high stimulation can make quiet activities feel less rewarding. Jaaved suggested parents create one daily slow moment without phones, television or tasks. Families could read together, watch the sky or sit outdoors. Experts recommend replacing screen time with shared experiences rather than bans alone. The comments have prompted discussion on attention spans and digital habits in children.
