Technology is as addictive as gambling, smoking and alcohol because of dopamine, a chemical that is released when something feels good. When an entire generation has access to something that releases dopamine (and that has no restrictions), they will rely on it when they have stress from life. With everyday stress plus the addictive cellphone use, other generations see the millennials as people who don't pay attention to others and selfish. With those two reasons combined, millennials want instant gratification. Today when you want something it can arrive the next day through Amazon, you can binge watch your favorite shows and get a date from swiping right.
