The Children Who Have Seen It All
First source report
John Melnikov reports that constant digital stimulation is causing a sense of listlessness and disinterest among teenagers. Writing for The Catholic Thing, Melnikov observes that students often appear bored by the real world because of the endless entertainment available on their devices.
Melnikov notes that while his school enforces strict policies regarding technology in the classroom, teenagers frequently find ways to bypass these rules. He suggests that this digital obsession may lead to a lack of enthusiasm for traditional interests such as music, sports, and social activities.
