Technology Addiction in Teens
Many of today's spend much of their time with their faces buried in a computer monitor or smart
phone. Moms and dads who would prefer that their teens' faces were buried in books might
suspect the cause of this phenomenon is technology addiction. Kimberly Young, director of the
Center for Internet Addiction Recovery, defines technology addicition as a habitual compulsion to
engage in using technology instead of addressing life's problems. For example, a teen who
instinctively begins lecturing her might be addicted to technology because such a reaction is likely
a coping mechanism to avoid conflict. Technology addicion can have several negative effects on a
teen. The attractiveness of anonymity, for example, might pull a teen away from social
engagement. Such an avoidance of social settings, in combination with the draw of the Internet,
could lead to a teen shutting himself off from his peers.
