Everybody makes fun of iPad kids but young adults are not that far behind them
Yes, little kids nowadays have horrendous attention spans and can’t cope with boredom like we did as kids but pretending cellphone and device usage did not affect us too is ridiculous. Adults (from 20-40 yr olds) use their screens in almost every single activity they do too. Going out to dinner? Scroll through phone. Eating? Watch something on a streaming platform. Pooping? Scroll through IG or Tiktok. Hell, there’s people that can’t sit through a show or movie without also being glued to their phones. Ive seen this phenomenon in a lot of different situations. People cant even party or drink together without mindlessly scroll through their phones. Sure its not as bad as little kids but its still bad in my opinion. Truth is, technology has affected us all and fried our dopamine receptors too. I think it’s time we admit a lot of us have a problem and an addiction just as the rabid ipad kids do lol. Older generations are not as affected but I’d say it’s mainly because they don’t know how to use their phones and computers as well.
