between my fellow students at school way younger than myself (I'm 32) and the teens I supervise at work, I can say that this generation is very big on instant gratification, I have one employee who after 2 hours of not using her cell phone she freaks out. She showed me her last bill, she averages over 3000 texts a month

I've also noticed that because of all the video game and computer usage the kids have difficulty focusing for extended periods of time, they need constant feedback. Funny enough, reading helps students work on their concentration, to bad what a lot of schools make the students read is crap
