The Dramatic Effects of Technology.

You can ignore it, deny it, or accept it for what it is, but technology has altered the human race.  It makes us think differently…even dream differently.  Our memory, our sleep patterns, and our attention spans are perceptibly changed.  You know what it does to adults, so what does it do to younger minds?

Here are some ways that technology has completely “re-wired” us –

1.  FOMO…fear of missing out
2.  PVS…phantom vibration syndrome.  You THINK that your cell phone is ringing
3.  Younger people are remembering less and less personal info. as it is “stored”
4.  Studies show that kids are more likely to react with unchecked hostility
5.  Falling asleep with the glow of laptops becomes more and more challenging

Inquiring minds want to know, and developing minds NEED to know!  Generation Z (people born in this century) will soon account for a third of the population.  Dr. Steven Sussman wants to help you navigate these swirling waters.  Dr. Sussman is a child psychologist who serves Mountainside, NJ and the area.  Please call him for an appointment at (908) 217-8106.
