[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every DC area kid I know has a phone and uses it a lot -- I don't believe that the increased use of phones/computers for entertainment is not a part of this. Fits in with the pattern of affluent parents assuming nothing is ever attributable to their children, though. [/quote] Mine don't.[/quote] Do they use the computer doing homework? Have access to anything with an internet connection? If so, they are probably being distracted by Facebook, Twitter, Vine -- at least to a degree. The 2 minute breaks add up. If they are screen free during homework time that's great -- it makes a huge difference not just to getting homework done but to being able to go to sleep more easily. [/quote]
