It is all about the phones, not systemic issues that surround teenagers. But those pesky phones, and the apps surrounding them.

Two things can complement and amplify the problem together. You people need to learn this. All of you. Being a fucking liberal and putting the onus of every problem onto one "enemy" is dumb and an evil act in itself, protecting other evils in the act of purging one.

I don't know if you're joking, and there definitely is other problems. But it's the fucking smartphones too mate they are a huge issue.
