If pure sugar is providing children with more instant gratification, healthy food should improve their product by adding way more sugar and salt too!

If heroin is providing adults with a better escape, real life should step up its game!

Or, maybe we should teach our children a modicum of discipline.

Rather than fighting for the attention of children, education should be where their attention is already focused.

Yeah, it’s called “Aiden! Don’t look at your phone while I’m talking. What did I just say about multiplication tables?!”

Yes, and after you say that to all 30 students you've wasted 1/3rd of your class time.
