Adolescentes se vuelven adictos y desarrollan síndrome de abstinencia a Smartphone y redes sociales

Social media companies blame parents for the addictive nature of their platforms, but parents are unaware of the negative impact phones can have on their kids. A woman shares her experience of her daughter's spiral into addiction caused by the exposure to harmful content and the constant demand for attention from apps. Parents often give phones to their kids for innocent reasons, but they unknowingly expose them to damaging influences. When parents attempt to control phone usage, kids can exhibit withdrawal symptoms comparable to drug addiction. This leaves parents feeling powerless and opting to give their kids the phone, further perpetuating the cycle of compulsive use.
