It’s the younger generation that live on camera on the internet and plaster their personal lives all over. It takes the place of real interaction and replaces it with exhibitionism. It also reinforces a selfcentered outlook.

Not true.
The younger generation have as much real social interaction as ever. They just blend it/enhance it with internet and other kinds of interaction. It's just the march of technology used to enhance life. It's been going on for eons. Back in the stone age, people could only "socialize" with the neighbors in the nearby caves, because they couldn't easily physically reach those that were only say 10/20 miles away. Transport and communication technologies changed all that. Nothing new here.
