teen angst and behavior


I uncovered a resource of information that I believe is worth discussing.  I don't know who I should be more angry with, parents or their kids.


I've been spending a lot of time researching a great deal regarding this issue and wanted to contribute my observations.Do you presume your little angel is not lying as to if they use their phone when they should be studying, or that they are where they say they are, or taking part in other truly hazardous things such as using their phone while driving or bullying some other kid or sexting?  In actuality the sheer volume of the stuff your teenagers are doing without your knowledge is too much for only one article.   Why did my kid become a bully?
  
Does childhood TV viewing bring about unlawful behavior?  Like lots of sensible researchers suspected, excessive childhood TV watching has been linked to long-term violent behaviors.  I'm wondering if that is is causing kids to become online bullies.  Did I allowed them to watch too much television?  Without a doubt video games must have the same negative influence.  I seriously need to monitor how much time my kids are using with the computer and cell phone. AC Nielsen research indicates mobile phone usage by teenagers is simply silly.
