Eliana Dockterman is a published writer for Time Inc. whose almost indifferent tone is used throughout the essay in the hopes of settling the argument over technology's role in children's lives and development.

Dockterman's indifference is seen by the equal usage of credible evidence that both supports her argument and challenges it. The usage of logistics, statistics, and credible sources such as authors, doctors, and principles, not only increases Dockterman's credibility, but offers a counter argument. The article starts of with various counter arguments and allusions to different schools and "treatments" to achieve a "digital detox" in children's lives such as the "Capio Nightingale Hospital in the UK... paying as much as $24,000..." Children being restricted from technology as if it's a disease can decrease their chances of competition in the workforce, which is why technology is important in making sure children are not left behind. "Shawn Jackson, principle of Spencer Tech," is one of the main faces of children being exposed to technology early on in Chicago. She writes that MIT believes that the…

I chose Bryce because his favorite thing to do is offroading, when he has spare time he goes outback behind our house and tears up the slough. The reason I picked Weston is that he pulls me…
