The Anxious Generation
This is a book that should be read by parents, teachers, and all of Gen Z, who grew up in the digital world without a clear distinction between it and the tangible world. Being aware of the problem we face is half the solution. And this book offers a good argument for the second half.
Jonathan Haidt, a social psychologist and bestselling author, presents a compelling argument for the dramatic decline in adolescent mental health observed globally since the early 2010s. His powerful thesis is that this crisis is largely due to "the great rewiring of childhood" a shift from a play-based, independent childhood to a phone-based, screen-dominated existence. Haidt lays out a data-backed case, examining how factors like social deprivation, sleep disruption, attention fragmentation, and addiction contribute to rising rates of anxiety, depression, and self-harm among young people.
