>where everyone is socializing on the internet

Or, as we used to called it in my day, not actually socializing.

So kids these days are exchanging enough words but not touching enough bodies?

According to me, yes. And mostly not doing enough stuff together and eye to eye -- which makes those words easier and less meaningful when they are not accompanied by actual effort, money, being there, etc.

Digital is a nice way to keep touch or contact new people, but bad replacement for physical socializing. Of course it's also easier and needs far less commitment, courage and empathy, and you can't beat that for people...
