Cell phones and a change in culture where being bored is not acceptable.
In the presence of more immediately stimulating media, children will prefer watching screens. The amount of times I read out of boredom or alternatives is huge.
There needs to be a deliberate push against immediate gratification in media consumption.

Kids can learn to balance media consumption and love reading. If parents zone out themselves on a mobile screen, what should the kids do?
