Talk to them about what they're watching on youtube or listening to on spotify, those are their interests. The apps are the just conduits. It's like your parents complaining about TV and Nintendo.

You don't have any kids, do you? On youtube they watch people creating minecraft worlds. When I talk to them about why they don't play minecraft themselves they tell me they would rather watch someone else. It so strange. They don't play video games. They watch other people playing video games. On instagram they just look at pictures of other people doing stuff. It's like they are living vicariously through other people's lives (most of which are surely fake) instead of living their own lives.

It sounds like they'd rather watch someone else.

After that discussion do you sit down on the couch and watch the football?
