Let's face it, majority of us are addicted to our phones. We're constantly checking our Facebook feed, Instagram posts, Snapchat stories, what's trending on Twitter - anything to get that buzz from a notification which is more than likely very insignificant. 

It's the world we live, but the downside is that the teens and children of today are also engulfing themselves with social media, and crazy videos of God-knows-what online. 

Kids become irate when a phone/tablet is taken off them, and this dependency has serious side effects - mentally, physically and emotionally. 

To learn more about the problem, and the steps we can take to ease our craving, Dermot and Dave gave Managing Director of eSafety.ie, Kyle Petrie a call.

Kyle gave us some incredible tips, and opened our eyes as to how serious the issue is. He also answered some of our listener's questions.
