  • I like how you are accusing sb on their own smartphone usage and then counter with your personal smartphone experience. You do realise both of them have the same weight behind them, right?

    And adults are not projecting their own frustration. Children and Teens are missing the critical experience to spot the dark pattern smartphones employ. The adults that speak up against them don’t do this out of personal shortcomings but to protect the vulnerable.

    Your argument is fundamentally flawed. If an ex-heroin addict tells you don’t do H, do you also not take their word because they were just weak and you surely would not get addicted like them?" Get off your high horse and reconsider your position.


  • I disagree. Any detox is a good start. However, maybe you want to expand on your idea of how more teachers should just make the problem go away? I, and I think the whole world, would love to hear how sb with a bachelor in education should break the addiction circle dreamed up by multi million tech companies. Phones are made to be addictive and the platforms they provide only focus on maximising the engagement time. I’m happy to hear any other option against that circle that doesn’t boil down to “Don’t engage with them”




  • Sure we always need more teachers but you can’t combat phone addiction with more teachers. If the students are unable to focus enough to read 3 pages they sure as shit will not be able to focus on two teachers. Just as a reminder these kinds are in their last 4 years of school, all of them are here on their own accord. The Matura is not mandatory. All of these kids want to go to universities. This is education for white collar jobs.
