Wait until she hears about hunger!
She’s right. I mean it bombards impressionable teenagers with a supercharged version of peer pressure.
I read an interesting article about how girl’s self-esteem is giganitcally undermined by the likes of instagram, as they are constantly bombarded with the illusion of a “perfect beauty standard”
It’s not the devices fault, it’s the parents who give them the iPads and iPhones in the case of kids under 12.
As for teens, it’s hard to dictate what they see/do so just talking to them about issues/things online makes a lot of difference.
Hear me out: tv.
So…what I hear is that Android is preferred over Apple.
Its not so much the devices themselves but more so that they’re made with the intention of being addictive. Companies go out of their way to hire experts that know what’s addictive to put into phones. That’s why every social media app has short story sections now and why YouTube opens up to short stories first instead of the home page like it used to. They’re going out of their way to throw addiction into the users face.
Phones didnt have this problem when they weren’t “smart’.
It’s not as bad as opinionated old people getting access to social media where they can scream into the void how everything was better before
I think I would say school shootings or poverty before Ipads but ok
Not related to the story at all but has anyone else seen clips of their podcast/whatever? It’s so… uncanny valley, it’s unsettling.
I have trouble believing the y are worse than when The Osbournes helped jumpstart reality television.
A poor healthcare system, defending public schools, and school shootings top the list Sharon.

Totally in agreement with her on this. The internet experience now is a lot different than it was 15 years ago.
I thought it was the hypocrisy
bitch look in the mirror. reality television is just as much at blame
Not just to kids.
KIDS DO NOT PLAY OUTSIDE ANYMORE
I mean maybe in her little rich people world, but I’d still put food instability over instagram on the list of “things that are bad for kids”
