I have a friend who is a teacher. This is some part of the way, but as they said, the real problem is "the kids see school as a waiting room in between dopamine hits", "they are constantly agitated and short-tempered". This matches other descriptions I've seen in the news and of withdrawl. For reference, I was at this school when a phone was not a given and we had a land-line for calling home after school. Some part of this transformation can take place in the classroom, but as has been said ad-nauseum, something needs to be done about algorithmic feeds.

The easiest thing is stop installing the apps and stop looking at the feeds.

Ah yes. Abstinence as the universal salve.

I was in a grocery store just a few months ago and a parent had given their (very young) child a tablet which from the audio was obviously playing fight video content and nothing educational. You can't stop something that's forced on you
