[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consider the possibility that tiktok is frying your brain, and that your brain would be fine and you would have the time, patience and concentration to read if you scrolled less and held an actual book in your hands. Pick up a book. Read a few pages. Repeat this exercise daily until the book draws you in.[/quote] This. For all the endless posts about The Evils of The Phone/Tablet/Internet/Social Media by parents on DCUM, the parents themselves are addicted (my favorite was the recent one where OP told the kids the family was going to do a technology fast together, but then said “the parents sneak online after the kids go to bed”). Yes, it is decreasing your attention span and ability to focus. Go into the settings on all of your devices and see how many hours of usage you have per day. It will be more than you think, or is healthy. People think that since it’s in bite sized fragments throughout the day, it’s “not so bad.”[/quote]
