What have smartphones done to our young people?

By Thom S. Rainer, Op-ed Contributor

I love my grandchildren. I worry about them too.

They're growing up in homes filled with love, stability, and the Gospel. They have two parents who are committed to each other and to raising their children with purpose. They have grandparents who dote on them, cheer for them, and pray over them. In short, they are blessed. 

But even with these blessings, my grandkids are not immune to the challenges facing their generation. Like nearly every other young person today, they carry something in their pocket that may be harming them more than they realize.

The smartphone.

The appendage
This ubiquitous device has become a cultural appendage. For Generation Z and Gen Alpha, the smartphone isn't just a tool — it's a lifestyle. And that lifestyle is quietly rewiring their brains, stealing their sleep, shrinking their confidence, and fueling a mental health crisis that cannot be ignored.
