Bailey Clark’s Reviews > The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness > Status Update

Pretty good still. Taking a break as I’m reading through the spirituality chapter.
It is clear that I have a different worldview from the author, so there are parts of the book that don’t resonate with me.

HOWEVER, he creates a compelling case for ditching the smart phone (especially for adolescents), and provides enough data to suggest that social media really just isn’t a good thing. Very interesting.

Rocking my world so far. Pretty convicting as well, given that I am in the age demographic that was first affected by the rise in smart phones/social media. I’m seeing a lot of my childhood/teen years in the writing, and up until this point, would have said I was especially protected from these dangers at that age.
