This document discusses how social media and technology are impacting students and teens. It notes that teens are constantly multitasking across 6-7 tasks at once and have short attention spans, staying focused on tasks for only 3 minutes. Teens heavily rely on texting and feel they need to be available to friends 24/7 through social media due to fear of missing out. The document also explores how teens use social media to document their experiences and share their lives online in order to feel seen and connected to others.

88. “Teens… believe they need to be available 24/7
to their friends, because, you know, someone
might get dumped or into an argument with
their parents. They need instant gratification
and solace. Nobody can wait anymore not
because they can’t—but because they don’t
need to.” -John M. Grohol, founder and CEO,
