Students are addicted to TikTok, a Chinese mobile video app, and a variety of anxiety-inducing phenomena are emerging, according to a teacher in Taiwan who recently called out parents to raise serious concerns about what’s happening.

Lin Yichen, a teacher at Taiwan’s Changhua County elementary school, posted an article on March 16 on Facebook titled “Once TikTok rings, parents’ efforts are in vain,” saying that almost all of her sixth-grade class was brainwashed by the popular social network software TikTok.
