A new study is linking depression to the time children spend watching TV and playing computer games.
Children who spend too much time watching television or playing computer games could be at a higher risk of anxiety and depression.
That's according to a report from Public Health England which says a link between time spent in front of screens and lower levels of well-being among children is a major cause for concern.
It's launching a new campaign encouraging families to adopt healthier behaviors ahead of the new school term.

She has just written a paper on the subject and speaking on Premier's News Hour had this advice for parents:
