Technology brains
I heard a program on CBC radio the other day, asking whether or not screens are altering developing brains, and not in a good way. There has been a rise in anxiety and cutting amongst teens in the last number of years. Studies are showing that constant screen use is a major contributing factor.

Ok, it's true, Philippa Gergory's historical fiction from the 1400s is my reading candy. Her writing style pulls you in with its lyrical quality and sensitive descriptions. Her characters come to life and you feel them, care about them, care with the ...more |
