You misunderstand.
Of course they're addicted to screens, like all kids these days.
It's just that they want a quick and easy fix, and certainly not to wear one around their heads.
Addictive screen technology has no "wow" factor for people that had them from birth. Screens are about as exciting and cool as daytime television was in the pre-Internet era. (And similarly, we somehow can't stop wasting hours a day on them still.)
