Kids are getting more and more stupid. An iPad is shoved in their face. They are incapable of learning, and even the most simple of tasks becomes the most difficult

So call out the parents. Why are we blaming the victims of neglectful parenting

by grimkittens · 2 hearts

right! it’s so sad seeing clear neglect with so many kids just sent to sit with a screen. it’s also so common to see very little muscle mass and bad dental health in children. disheartening really

Some of the problem is that with the economy, both parents need to work and they’re working so much they get home and they’re so tired that they don’t have time to be parents, which is extremely unfortunate as well

yep, it’s honestly just not the right choice to have kids when you’re not in a financial position to do so.

That sucks but that same thing happened at my school before the ipod was an itch in Steve Jobs' balls. Kids aren't smart, that's what adults are for

Not to this level, it is gradually getting worse. And I’m not saying that my generation was perfect. My job I’m only 27. Myself and every kid around me made so many mistakes. But I remember learning quicker than these kids yeah here and there, but not every five minutes.

I’ve been trying. Slowing things down for them. Explaining. Demonstrations. But they refuse every time

It's disappointing. The worst part is that it really isn't the kids' faults. It's the parents who shove them in front of screens every day with no limits and subpar monitoring. We need to do better for our kids so they don't grow up to be completely dysfunctional adults.

Coming from a person who works in education, this is so true the kids are addicted to devices. And the parents are mostly to blame they give their kids devices at such a young age instead of raising their kids the TV iPad and computer raises the kids.

Studies are starting to show that screens are directly impacting early childhood brain development. With current ways to consume media, kids are getting flooded with emotions and topics they don't understand, but are given no emotional regulation to know how to handle the emotions. i.e tantrums, explosive episodes when something is too hard, not being able to talk in complete sentences because they're listening to such complicated topics and don't actually know what theyre saying... it's disheartening
