Description
Liqing Yao and co-authors linked eating habits, poor sleep, and internet addiction in Chinese left-behind children, in a 2023 study. These children stay in home towns while parents work far away. Over three thousand junior high students from a poor region answered the survey. Average age was about fourteen.
Skipping breakfast and low fruit or protein intake raised addiction odds. Insomnia symptoms did the same. Patterns differed between boys and girls in the analysis. The team used standard scales for sleep and addiction. Support for these children may need food and sleep care, not just screen rules.
