I’m a high school English teacher. What you’re saying seems mostly right - but, anecdotally of course, the trend has been made more severe. Their ability to engage with in-person socialization is very obviously impaired, and their pre-existing tendency to snack on social media is compulsive for a whole bunch of them. At a much higher level than I’ve ever seen, kids will choose swiping over talking with their friends who are sitting right next to them. It’s getting better, but - man - it was bad when we first returned from distance learning.
