An excellent read Kayleigh. I love how you outline in a detailed manner the biopsychosocial mechanisms at play. It reminds me of Simon Sineks famous “ Millenials in the workplace” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MC2X-LRbkE that went viral years ago. The key difference is that here we are a generation later and not only have we ( older generation)not listened to the experts but we continue to shame the younger generations for something they did not create.

I love Simon! This video was so important and I feel like at the time years ago (10 years almost now) was so overlooked. But it’s so true, it’s different now, and it’s time to change the workplace not by contorting itself to this issue but by uplifting and reengaging Gen Z.

Well thought out and a timely and needed discussion. Brain development is not an opinion-based discussion. It is biology. Some may remember ‘coffee breaks’ at work. Perhaps access to social media should be handled the same way. Great article.
