"Surtout, ne laisse pas ton fils devant les écrans."

Translation: Above all, don't leave your son in front of screens.

[Ben829591]

What the hell does this mean?

[InvertedGo]

Don't let your sons watch TV or do any computer or video game related stuff. They'll just get hooked and they'll never do anything creative ever again.

That's what the sentence seems to imply. At least to me. (Not saying I agree.)

[DaveGarrar]

Why not 'the screens' since it is les écrans

[-BigWayne19-]

------- don't walk away and leave your son or sons ? or is it don't LET your son / sons in front of the screen / screens ? ugly . . .

What was wrong with 'in front of the screens?'

[KanDutta]

Nothing, perfectly accepted. There must be a mistake somewhere else.

[NavHenry]

A terrible translation into english by Duo. Not surprising as the dentence makes little sense.

[Ofer862867]

Why "les" and not "des"? (in front of screens..)

[Jothi972484]

Why can't Duo do something about this?
It's frustrating.

[J.G.410640]

"Especially, don't leave your son in front of screens" marked wrong. Why? (On previous attempt, Duo wouldn't accept "the screens." What a ridiculous sentence/translation.

[Robin944909]

This is ridiculous! Why is "especially" not accepted?

[ivornovello]

your sound recordings leave a lot to be desired or are they bad on purpose

[traindrivermark]

in front of the screen? ("ton fils" is singular)

[EW5PJ1A3]

one son, more than one screen
