without ever paying attention

In my opinion that is the most common parenting failure today.
Children need attention. If they don't get it at home, they will find it elsewhere. Add a social media replacement and things don't go so well.
I don't like the idea of two income families. I understand that it's necessary, but I think that aggravates the problem.

My parents never hovered over me, but there was always one available. I tried to do the same. It's a luxury that many can't afford anymore.

You've really hit the nail on the head with children needing attention from their parents.

If children are getting real attention from their parents at home. Real attention too, engaged parents who are involved in their lives. They are far less likely to fall victim to the dangers of the internet.
