Tolerant Teens Most Helpful When Gadgets Fail
You know that feeling you get when your Internet connection dies or when your computer just stops functioning? You want to literally pull your hair out or even throw your computer into oncoming traffic. We’ve all been there, and each one of us handles the situation differently.
Teens evidently are the most tolerant during a technological meltdown. According to the Pew Research Center, young adults are much more optimistic when their gadgets fail. In fact, they are more likely to be confident that they are on the right path to fixing it than us older adults who want to kick and scream.
While there is no data on how successful teens are in actually fixing their devices, experts say young people have high hopes that they can at least try to fix the problem.
Teens. I guess they’re much more tolerant than we thought.
All of this is good to know, especially the next time my wireless router decides to stop working.
