For the first time in the history of the world, there are two generations of young people who have been raised with computers. The amount of exposure to screens is revolutionary. The numbers of hours with video games, TV, computers, iPads, and cell phones, etc., are transforming the landscape for todays children and their parents.

While this has created an explosion of knowledge, and unprecedented exposure to the broader world, paradoxically, it has also created a massive yearning for deeper connection and community that cannot be met by text messages, by computer games, or by social media.
