Negative Experiences with Cell Phones (For Students, Parents & Educators)
Student Discussion Topics
- Stuck on Social Media
- What could you miss out on if you get so caught up in social-media feeds—or how people respond to yours—that you tune out other things around you?
- Cyberbullying
- What if any posts or comments online would you consider to be cyberbullying?
- Taking a Break
- How do you think it would feel to go a day or longer without your phone?
Conclusion
Navigating screen time issues today is a huge challenge but finding balance is possible. There are definitely many negative consequences for excessive screen time, but in moderation, screen time offers many opportunities for teens to learn and develop their talents. By starting early, teens can set themselves up for a lifetime of balanced screen time use and reduce the potential negative impact.
