The author expresses concern over the unlimited media gratification that our youth have. He is essentially talking about you! Respond to his concerns.
I don’t think the author should be concerned. With the new faster technology we are indeed being spoiled and we are happy over it. So why would this ever be a problem?
Child stars are getting everything they want but they also have the publicity and rumors that may drive them half insane and into rehab. Having technology isn’t having the ability to have everything you want. Technology is just an efficient tool to help ease stresses in life. It provides a link to media, news, entertainment and social networks. Therefore we don’t get upset because of all the stresses in life and its easier for work to be done and communication to vent.
Children may commit suicide because they are depressed in school and may often be bored or distracted. Let’s use that as an excuse to toughen our curriculum and use technology to make assignments fun and perhaps entertaining. With technology you can have that communication between students and professors to know if a child has a psychological problem or dilemmas in classroom. Then they can talk to their parents, incorporate them into his studies and make sure he doesn’t need help and gets the treatment he deserves. No student is neglected.
I think the main thing we should be concerned about is making sure children are educated and not really the techniques we use to educate.

I think that your definitley right when you said that yes, stars to get everything they want, but yet they do have to deal with a lot of un-wanted publicity which creates a lot of rumors and problems. And i also agree with what you said on how no one should be worried about all of this new technology because if anything, we can use it in a good way.
