There is some good potential here. One of our worst social problems as a society today is the “polite social” disconnect between boys and girls.

Boys and girls need polite social practice to get along with each other, as well as to be discouraged from gross, demeaning, aggressive, and other inappropriate conversation.

Both genders need to learn “how to talk” to the other gender. AI could provide real time feedback, give pointers, show a real time favorability rating. It goes on and on.

The average American family in 2023 consisted of 3.15 persons - little or no siblings to play, interact with, learn to tolerate differences, resolve conflicts, share.

Plus, by age 10, about 42% of kids have a smartphone, increasing to 91% by age 14.

Less than 1 in 10 teens gets enough exercise. and with a third of U.S. adults classified as obese.

"The increased rate of anxiety, depression and suicidality over the past several decades coincides with the decrease in play, that is critical to teaching essential life-skills.' (https://www.psychologytoday.com)

How will they learn to communicate with much of any depth? They do learn how to protest though.
