Phony Excuses

I have a student who gladly spends 7 hours a day on TikTok – yes, and she can prove it.

A year ago, I had another student who spent 6 hours a day on TikTok, tried to give it up – it lasted a week and then back on it.

The average on social media for TikTok is 93 minutes a day.  And it’s not just TikTok, it’s Instagram and other apps.

This is insane but adults have their own issues looking into their devices instead of into the eyes of others or off in the distance to the world around them.

It is possible to enjoy social media or other apps without turning into that app – what it takes is a plan to take charge of your life.

Code writers build apps to keep you glued so they can serve endless content and ads.
