Square-eyed Teens

Are you a screenager? Are you constantly glued to the TV, texting your

friends, chatting online, or perhaps trying to move up another level in one of your

favourite video games? Well, if you are, you are in the majority. You are another

quick-thinking, multi-tasking teenager, like millions of others who demand to be

constantly in touch with their friends.

Most teenagers do almost everything electronically. They watch digital TV,

listen to music on a digital MP3 player and communicate electronically with

friends through email, instant messaging or by mobile phone. Teenagers even do

most of their reading online now. When they need help with their homework, it’s

often the Internet that they turn to. Gadgets are, in fact, teenagers’ primary tools of

communication, information, and entertainment. According to a recent survey

more than half of teenagers prefer to spend most of their time in their bedroom

because that is where their favourite gadgets are.

Experts from all over the world worry that teenagers’ addiction to technology

is having an effect both on their health and on their behaviour. In some countries,

teenagers are getting help. In Britain, for example, there is a clinic that helps young

people whose passion for all things electronic is having a negative effect on their

lives. In China and Korea, there are even boot camps where children receive

psychological help and treatment. There, young people have to do non-gadgetrelated activities. It’s probable that these types of camps will become common in

other countries in the future. Learning to keep a balance between the real and the

virtual world will help the ‘square-eyed generation’ understand that gadgets and

technology are useful and fun but they should not let them rule their lives.
