Kids today don’t interact with people. They interact with their tech devices.
Then blame should be placed on the parents.
The upcoming generation will be even worse.
Babies interact with tablets strapped to their strollers and high chairs.
They are being ignored and their attention is controlled by the device.
My prior post regarding teachers did also hit parents: Teachers stand alone here, as do parents.
I agree with you on the depersonalization occurring now from our devices. It is not good imo, was never before seen in humankind, and likely will lead to bad outcomes, personally and societally. Were progressing from the boob tube/idiot box.
