“Children growing up after the Great Rewiring skip through multiple networks whose nodes are a mix of known and unknown people, some using aliases and avatars, many of whom will have vanished by next year, or perhaps by tomorrow. Life in these networks is often a daily tornado of memes, fads, and ephemeral micro-dramas, played out among a rotating cast of millions of bit players. They have no roots to anchor them or nourish them; they have no clear set of norms to constrain them and guide them on the path to adulthood.” ChildrenChildhoodInternetSocial MediaGreat Rewiring Book:The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness Source: The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness
