    1. That’s the same for every generation, isn’t it? Have you ever heard a boomer recognize a mistake? And I’m not even going to mention GenX as they’re the least relevant generation of all time.
    2. You’re using the Donald Trump’s “strategy of avoiding my question with disdain for the opposite”: do you seriously think a 12 years old (or younger) can be held accountable if you give them a highly addictive, brain-rotting, paranoia machine?

    Most of kids get a smartphone before their teens and it’s not like they bought it for themselves… How can you hold a 12 years old accountable?

    GenZ is like a giant, unaware focus group for a product (the smartphone/social media environment) that has been beta-tested after release. Only very recently, as a society, we’ve started to adjust to it

    I’ve seen you edited the post for the sources, good job.
    I just wanted to point out that I don’t disagree with the article, I think it’s just poorly written: if you talk about “intelligence” you have to write “intelligently” otherwise it’s just old man yelling at cloud type of content.

    As a kid I wanted to go to music school but we couldn’t afford it because my single mother had two jobs and other three children to take care of.
    I did free lessons at the community center, borrowed my first instrument and got library books. No one encouraged me to do it, I just did it because music was something I wanted in my life.
    Now OK, that was me and I was just a kid with a lot of spare time right? What about adults?
    Well, if I graduated while working full-time (and I’m not exactly “Good Will Hunting” level of smart) everyone can do something as trivial as learning basic Spanish if they want.
