> The interesting point of this article is that it focuses on the experience of psychic dissociation, registered as "anxiety," that now apparently afflicts over 40% of American teenagers...

The news is not all bad:

"Apple products like iPhone and Apple Watch continue enjoy healthy demand from young U.S. consumers, as new data from Piper Jaffray shows a record 82 percent of teens have iPhone in mind as their next smartphone..."

..."solutions" will always be found for problems that have a good business plan and a viable client base.
