Each day, we hear that smartphones and social media are making our children particularly teenagers lazy, addicted, lonely and especially unable to function in the real world. Another study says that there is no compelling evidence that spending time online has a deleterious effect on teens’ mental health.

This could be making them less curious, less able to finish tasks, less emotionally stable and lowering their self-control.
