[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If smartphones were turned off at 6pm they would not even be talking about changing start times. I have interviewed hundreds of kids about how much they use their Iphones in the evening and nearly everyone admits to using it about every five minutes while studying or doing homework. I also asked them if the phone was put on a table across the room how long would it be before they started to feel anxious. The usual answer is about ten minutes. If they would turn off their damn phones they would be in bed at a decent hour. Don't believe me? Find a couple of tweeter accounts belonging to teens that you know (including your own kids). Check out how late at night they are still exchanging tweets. Midnight, one, two AM is not unusual.[/quote] I don't buy this at all. It wouldve been too early to me 20 years ago. No Internet then.
