At 21 sites across the country scientists have begun interviewing nine and ten-year-olds and scanning their brains. They'll follow more than 11,000 kids for a decade, and spend $300 million doing it. Dr. Gaya Dowling of the National Institutes of Health gave us a glimpse of what they've learned so far.

The interviews and data from the NIH study have already revealed something else: kids who spend more than two hours a day on screens got lower scores on thinking and language tests.

The colors show differences in the nine and ten-year-olds' brains. The red color represents premature thinning of the cortex. That's the wrinkly outermost layer of the brain that processes information from the five senses.

I could’ve saved them the time and expense of a study. They just needed to spend a few minutes with my kids.

My friend is a pediatrician and he calls them “bipads” because they turn the kids gay
I hate to break the news to you baws but it’s probably too late for yalls sons

Drive the roads enough during the day and I think you’ll find the technology is making us all dumb as a bucket of rocks.

Kids who don't spend time communicating with others don't develop the parts of their brain that manage communication ability.
Got a lot of shitty parents out there (and in here) who want iPads to raise their kids because they're too lazy to do anything other than force their kids to play sports they don't want to play.

That is the most retarded thing to come out of this study.

Makes you dumb on stupid shite like farming. However when these kids are plugged into the network and Boomers are wanting someone to pay their welfare; we will see who has the final laugh.

Yeah, no shite.
We rationalize kids using ipads all day by cheering "yeah! they're going to be so tech-savvy and prepared for the new high-tech economy when they're older."
Except they're just playing friggin Angry Birds all day long.

I'm not taking up for the kids here, but some of you are cracking me up with this high and mighty stance on gaming, when you and I both know damn well that we were almost as bad growing up.
The only difference is that you couldn't hold an Atari, Sega, Nintendo, or Commodore 64 in your hand and play it in the car and in restaurants.
But you can fricking believe that we would have when we were kids.
