Not exactly a direct answer but..
Here's a big one that's current day-
Computers/Internet/"Smart" Phones
I think the affects it can have on the mind (and all aspects of life)- will be more widely considered a *serious* topic in the future. It already is in Silicon Valley (and places like that). The affect it has, or can have on a child's development is taken seriously in many of the homes of coders/developers/etc who work with and understand "tech" on a deeper level. I think its most relevant to those who are born into it...like the mental health aspect...especially with how things are now...it can contribute a lot to shaping ones worldview and lifestyle for better or worse. It can be addicting as well.. Google is seemingly limitless.
I know I'm on the internet too much- personally.
Its like being "plugged in". Its got its ups and downs I guess.
