Phone use...

[MichaelWinicki]

Here's one thing about rampant phone use (when I mean rampant I don't mean not a "flip-down" phone you take with you to "yes, receive or make an emergency call if necessary", but a smart-phone/I-phone that you take to exchange texts, receive or send emails or surf the web) that I do believe...

You look at the ever exploding ADD/AHDD "epidemic" in this country and I don't think it's coincidence that it has risen rapidly in recent years in conjunction with the huge increase in the use of smart phones/I-phones.

the whole ADD line of crap comes from kids who no longer exhaust themselves playing outside; with all that time spent sitting in front of a tv screen that energy has to go somewhere.

and parents and teachers too lazy to deal with it just recommend drugs. Wonderful world we live in.

yep, ADHD is for parents who are scared to whip their kids......at least that's the stupid crap I used to say when I was a freaking idiot and had never had to deal with a kid who had it.

many of them do not have anything wrong; this ADD and et all is just a convenient excuse to drug kids because the parents do not want to deal with them.
