Comments by "Martin Maat" (@MartinMaat) on "Why modern America creates fragile children | Jonathan Haidt" video.
OK, boomer. Playing outside is important alright. But being bullied does not make you stronger, there is little positive about this. The current young generation does grow up differently and learns different things. Being on the internet and social media a lot is not something to be dismissed as if it is a waste of time, these kids are gaining skills the older generation never did and is largely unaware of. I am in my late fifties but I recognize it is a good thing today's kids do NOT get the same education I did. They need different skills and they learn a lot of them by looking at their phones. This man may have some valid points but his perspective is skewed.
