** Here is one of the more cunning and dangerous things I have noticed {as a retired electrical engineer} is most people today seem permanently attached to a smart fon. While I can understand the basic use of these devices - it has now become a form of domination and control - which I see causing a social crisis of major proportions! It is similar to the conditions of those on Hard Drugs - who though hooked, will deny it and continue useing - no matter which methods are used to break their habit!
Sad that so many today have become slaves to their techno-gadgits and things.
My outlook{having spent with 40 years in electronics and computer systems}
is technology is great as long as it works correctly and you can actually benefit. It is another thing when you can learn how to properly use technology - yet it is another story when the technology controls {or dominates} you.
Even so, emerging research suggests that a key problem remains underappreciated. It involves kids’ development, but it’s probably not what you think. More than screen-obsessed young children, we should be concerned about tuned-out parents.

The Dangers of Distracted Parenting
Smartphones have by now been implicated in so many crummy outcomes—car fatalities, sleep disturbances, empathy loss, relationship problems, failure to notice a clown on a unicycle—that it almost seems easier to list the things they don’t mess up than the things they do. Our society may be reaching peak criticism of digital devices.
