Face to face confession is not mandated, it is purely optional. every parish I have gone to has the screen available. Personally I prefer face to face, especially if discussing a sensitive matter.

I know it is not mandated. But it was not an option pre-Vatican II.

I need to do face-to-face because of my hearing disability: I can't understand conversation unless I can see the other person's facial expression.
A frequent line of mine: "Let me put my glasses on so I can hear you."
