Glued to a screen

Take a good look around you. How many screens does your home contain? How many hours do you spend in a day without a screen in front of you? Be it for work or for pleasure, a screen in any form - laptop, tablet, television or even your smart phone - is always in front of you. 

Makes one wonder, if we are this dependent on screens, imagine how our children will be in the future. Today's school-going children comprise a unique lot: they are the first generation in the history of mankind who has access to and uses Internet, social media and smart phones from a very early age. 

And given their addiction, the outcome can be dangerous.
