It has EVERYTHING to do with the internet age. When I get a card with a note inside from someone that I met online, and the note says "prolly" instead of probably, you think that's not a problem?! Internet speak in taking over in kids communication outside of the internet. You can pretend it isn't a problem but us older folk see very clearly that it is.
I am yet to see any scientific study that says teenagers don't socialize today,
We have a bunch of fat, lazy kids that sit their butts in front of a PC all day and you don't see a problem?
Internet age is NOT equal to social interaction.
Again, teenagers go to dances, play basketball, hockey , football, etc, chase girls, go on dates just like teenagers did in my time.
“We have a bunch of fat, lazy kids that sit their butts in front of a PC all day and you don't see a problem?”
Nice attempt at bait and switch. Your reply has nothing to do with my post.
I will repeat what I said:
“I am yet to see any scientific study that says teenagers don't socialize today, because they spend all their free time on social networks."
If you have any such scientific studies, let us see it.
