Teens don’t consume media. They inhabit it. Here’s a conversation with my 15 year-old cousin last night.
Me: What are you doing?
Her: I’m on Facebook
Me: Why?
Her: I don’t know.
Me: Do people really care what you are doing?
Her: Probably not
Me: Do you care what your friends are doing?
Her: Not really.
Me: So why are you on it then?
Her: Because everyone else is.
