When chronically online leads to homicide

So here's this article i found from sankaku complex.

A middle school girl has been accused of stabbing her mother, resulting in her untimely death, and the reason for this violent outburst was allegedly a matter regarding her smartphone – such a pitiable situation thought to be more common in the West.

The mother, a woman in her 40s, died from severe stab wounds made with an edged tool in Shizuoka’s Makinohara City, and police are of the notion that her middle school daughter was responsible for this.

People involved in the incident claim the 13-year-old daughter (a first-year middle school student) was discussing troubles regarding smartphones with her mother, causing some to theorize that a smartphone-based conflict led to this spontaneous murder.

The victim’s body was discovered at a Makinohara City residence and was riddled with various stab wounds – the woman was rushed to a hospital, but she ended up succumbing to the damage done.

Well this is a new one and what do you think about this? personally for me time management should be taught at an early age and kids shouldn't be around social media at all and phones are only for contact with parents or anyone else close and thats it.

I agree that parents should teach their kids about controlling their time and keep them away from social media.

Although I would argue this is more of an extreme case probably some other circumstances contributed to it ending violence.
I mean parents take their kids phones all the time and it normally doesnt end in stabbings lol
