that's what i say

i've been saying this for years. 

i started by saying no child (pre-tween, teenager, etc) should have a computer and access to the internet in their bedroom.  they should only be able to use a family computer in a family room where anyone can walk by and check in.

this article is really disturbing.  i do know that if i had a young child, tween, teenager, they would not be allowed a cell phone until they were 16 and had a job. 

i don't know exactly what 10 year old should be doing but i absolutely DO know that it shouldn't be begging someone not to commit suicide on a social media app.  this floored me.

what have we done to our children?  what happened to our social interactions with others?  every day i feel like we are closer and closer to living in the world of Demolition Man where you have intimacy with VR goggles and the best restaurant in the world is Taco Bell.
