Comment on 40% of Kids Can't Read and Teachers Are Quitting [video]

Australia's social media ban for young teenagers is probably a good thing but time will tell.

While, as a parent, i don't like social media in its current form and the effect it has on ALL people, one must not forget that the 'fight' between old and young people has been going for at least 2500 years now. ( https://historyhustle.com/2500-years-of-people-complaining-a... ). I also recommend watching the movie 'The Boat That Rocked' ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1131729/ )

There is no fight actually and noone is complaining "kids these days" at the moment. KIds are not the ones to blame in current situation. It's 100% work left undone by previous generations.

It needs generational time, the current hooked generation can't give up (not their fault since the largest tech bros build a very additive product), but there's hope for the next generation.

Unless something worse comes along, like vaping and we undo all the anti smoking progress of the last two generations.
