    I’ve seen parents pushing toddlers around strapped into a stroller with a tablet mounted on an arm right at the kid’s eye level. Even if the kid wanted to stop looking at the tablet, they’d have a hard time. They’re basically Ludovico Technique-ing their own kids.

      this is what i’m talking about. i watched A LOT of tv, but there were no tablets to shove at me while shopping or traveling. is the portable screens available to or pushed on kids 24-7 that seems fundamentally different to me than what i experienced as a kid.
