An opinion piece published on May 4, 2026, in Amader Desh highlights the growing problem of device addiction in modern society. The article warns that smartphones, tablets, and laptops, while making life easier, are silently fostering a new behavioral disorder known as digital dependency or internet gaming disorder. It notes that excessive screen time is reducing attention span, memory, and mental strength, particularly among youth. According to Statista data cited in the article, people spend an average of six to eight hours daily on screens, and about 70 percent of urban Bangladeshi students use mobile phones for more than four hours a day.
The report identifies health issues such as computer vision syndrome and text neck syndrome, along with psychological problems like depression, anxiety, and insomnia. It also discusses how social media comparisons and instant gratification are eroding patience and emotional stability. The article warns that children exposed to screens too early may face developmental challenges, including autism-like conditions.
To counter this, the author suggests digital detox, screen-time management, and parental guidance to promote balanced technology use and strengthen family relationships.
