Mental Health Crisis:

Living Fossils, Josh:

"As Haidt says, “the loss of ‘play-based childhood’ and its replacement by ‘phone-based childhood.’”

Basically, the idea is that kids transitioned abruptly from being outside and hanging out with their friends in person to spending large amounts of time inside and online, especially on social media. The time spent on social media, in particular, was bad for a number of reasons, many of which the reader will be familiar with: less in-person interaction, exercise, and sleep, more curated content to compare oneself to, and so on. Both Haidt and Twenge have been thorough and patient in responding to various criticisms. I find their arguments convincing and recommend visiting their Substacks for more."
