[quote=Anonymous]I think kids can end up being lonelier in the electronic age b/c everyone is on a screen vs. interacting with one another. If he's able to have friends over make sure there's at least some time when there is no screen time, e.g., for a meal. Or maybe suggest activities with friends like ropes course, rock climbing or swimming where it's not conducive to screen time. If he seems happy, I wouldn't worry about it too much but I do think kids need more time just socializing. I think this video makes the point very well: http://943thepoint.com/i-forgot-my-phone-viral-video-parodies-cell-phone-use/[/quote]
