In all earnestness, do you think reading books has the same effect as doom scrolling on tiktok?


And I'm sure all those parents bitching about video games and dungeons and dragons were patting themselves on the back over how they weren't as ridiculous as their parents thinking that the problem with the youth was rock and roll music and dancing which includes moving your hips. They finally had it figured out for real this time. Not like the hundreds of generations before panicking over basically nothing.


The question was, in all earnestness, do you really believe children reading books has the same detrimental effect on a child's development as social media and phones do?
