This question is NOT related to the Dad series, this is a reality check

Listen, this won't be as harsh as the reality check I got, but it's still one. Right now, you might use technology as your "Break from the real world" and stuff, but this is the same thing people addicted to alcohol say. You might think playing games and stuff will help, but it's pushing away the more important things in life. School is not here so you can learn things, it's to make sure you are ready for the real world when it comes to jobs and college. I know people here who are addicted, and prefer this virtual world over the real world, and it is bad. You only live once, and this real world is more important. You might think it's bad, and it is. You will deal with rude people, and you gotta deal with it. You can't push this stuff to the aside with games, because when you go back, the problems will still be there

This is part one of my reality check. I will post more if nobody gets the message.

this really spoke to me. I used to be a very lonely kid with no friends and all I did was sit on my phone and sleep all day not doing any school work. now I have good grades, a job, friends, and my mental health is getting way better as the days go by
