I have thought about this a lot, having two teenage daughters who use phones, I have been talking to them openly about it, How it is affecting their brains, switching them off from the outside world. I see it happen in myself when I get sucked in and I end up doom scrolling. I am sure my brain sinks a little in size when I do.
It's scary really and my girls tend to laugh me off, when I bring it up.
We can already see the effects it is having, with people more invested in whats happening online that their own lives. Attention spans are dwindling, and then there is the bullying that happens.
I just want to run away into the mountains sometimes x

What do you know, boomer!
(without them understanding that boomers are in their 70s and 80s.

Bullying in schools is useful - because it is face to face. Digital bullying is crazy, as there is no escape, no safe place, even at home.
