Many Kids Now Engage in Media 'Multi-Tasking'

Apparently, today's youngsters love their media -- a lot.

So finds a new British study, which reveals that media 'multi-tasking' is all the rage among some 10- and 11-year-olds who simultaneously surf TV, laptops, cell phones and other devices.

'Children are doing lots of screen-viewing at the same time, [and] the TV was just a small part of this viewing,' noted study lead author Russell Jago, from the Centre for Exercise, Nutrition & Health Sciences in the School for Policy Studies at the University of Bristol. - Yahoo! News
