    The reality is that something as mundane as social media can have an incredibly debilitating effect on the developing brain of an adolescent.

    Corporations treat kids like an experimental playground. I mean, you can just look at the global drop in childrens’ reading, writing, and spelling abilities and realise maybe replacing pen and paper for laptops has been a net negative for their developmental pathways.

      Seeing how many adults go batshit crazy through Social Media, I say it’s society as a whole having become an experimental playground.
