China opens halfway house for teen Net addicts
Agency Inc. reports that "Mainland China has opened its first halfway house for Internet addicts, offering shell-shocked teenagers counseling, books--and the use of computers."
Up to four youth can stay for one night to take advantage of the services. The Cyber-Social Workers walk the streets of internet bars to find youth addicts and they bring them to the house upon the youth's agreement.
Is this a new form of reactive youth social services for a digital generation?
