Teens and Technology Addiction

In the past five years, parents have watched with horror as teenagers have become permanently attached to their
ipods, cellphones, and laptops. A teenager today spends up to three times as long staring at a screen (television or
computer) than teenagers ten years ago. In an effort to remind teenagers that technology is not essential to life,
some parents are rationing out screen time for the week. Other parents don't allow their children to watch any
television during the school week. Some families are even taking week-long camping trips in which no technology
is allowed at all--even a cell phone. The struggle to break technology dependency is constant.
