Undoubtedly, current social dynamics, technological dependence, and the limited time available as a family, undermine a healthy state in all aspects, from the personal to the social.
From autism induced by screen exposure and limited social contact with peers during childhood, to the inability to socialize functionally and therefore prone to antisocial behavior, these are phenomena that impact today's daily life.
Everything must be intertwined. For example, schools are doing very well in limiting the use of technological screens. But when these children leave school, what happens? Do their families consistently contribute to school policies?
I don't think it is inducing autism, but I do think it is making behaviours similar to autism. It is a important differentiation, because they are diagnosing and treating autism, when kids don't have it. They just have similar conditioned behaviours.
I completely agree with you.
I mentioned it this way because I didn't intend to address other elements like the one you mentioned.
The phenomenon of generalized diagnoses is widespread throughout the world, and it's regrettable.
I think it's very appropriate that you're clear about it.

I expect not, because it is easier for most parents to sit their kid on a screen, while they themselves are on a screen.
Sad reality...
