 Children’s lack of social networks may inhibit
comfortable social interactions and feelings of
support in the offline environment
 Desire to avoid Face to Face and Escape to
Smart Phones
 May not take advantage of the media to enrich
their social lives and increase their level of
social engagement.
 Phubbing makes us feel bad, but even worse,
it leads to unhappiness and depression.
