I work in several high schools and would very much like to see this.
There are times as I approach retirement that I see things, perhaps like those described in this series and think, "I am getting so old, kids today are not really that different, but it just bugs the hell out of me."
But on the other hand, I do truly feel that social media has amplified and warped feelings and behaviors that were probably always there in ways that we can't fully comprehend yet.
Schools endlessly debate whether phones should be in school and thought is always, "I don't care that the kids are wasting time, they will do that anyway, I hate phones in the classroom because it ramps up the DRAMA."
Sounds like this show describes this phenomenon pretty well.
@MylesRyden It does that and more.
@WarnerCrocker @MylesRyden Will look for it. Rarely find anything on Netflix that interests me. Your review is compelling.
@cobalt123 @MylesRyden It is one of the rare ones that stand out from the crowd.
