Yes, I'm sure you're absolutely right.  This generation will have lots 
of neck/spine problems, and carpal tunnel in the hands, when they get 
old; due to walking around while constantly staring down at their phone 
and running into things.

Agreed.  Along with a LOT of other important stuff.  Have to make room 
in the curriculum for all the new "woke" agenda stuff, ya know.  :-(
