A short YouTube clip by Ming @ Agents of Speech arguing that gadgets can be useful for learning when used correctly, but gadget addiction in children is harmful. Ming warns that limiting an addicted child's access can cause them to act out (be 'a jerk'), and that such addictive patterns are detrimental to kids.
Remember that gadgets are good for learning if you use it correctly. Okay? There's loads of good stuff on the Internet, on YouTube and so on. It's because they're addicted to something. So if you've seen anyone who's addicted to something, you don't let them have it. What are they gonna do? They're gonna be a jerk to you because you are standing in the way between they're obsessed with and you're being someone who is trying to limit their dose of what they're addicted to. And that, I think, is really detrimental to a kid.
