Personal Response
As a Spanish person who recently came from Spain to Hong Kong, I have grown up seeing the changes that have occurred throughout the years. When I was a little boy, I used to always go outside and play football and other games like that, but when I got older, I was more attached to the electronic devices.
Arjun:
As I have never been to Spain and neither am I from Spain, I don't think that this problem really affects me. However, I do think that this problem will raise with many other countries and then it will affect a whole lot more people.
