The evidence is equivocal on whether screen time is to blame for rising levels of teen depression and anxiety — and rising hysteria could distract us from tackling the real causes.

    Blaming teenage mental illness on social media feels to me like the boomers are trying to find a different scapegoat than all the factors caused by their own stupidity, greed and destruction of human habitat.

      So. . .where’s your evidence? Or are you, just like Haidt, currently seeking evidence for your tale?

        My guy, you are asking me to provide evidence for the claim that something feels to me a certain way. You do realize how silly that is?

          You answered my question: it’s a tale seeking evidence.

              That’s you’re exactly like the boomers you are attacking.
