Technology impacts our daily lives and we don’t even realize it. Technology is great and extremely useful now a days and there are a lot of neat ways to use it. However, it can also ruin your life in multiple ways. For starters, the time that was spent between humans in one on one contact has definitely lowered. Many families hardly spend time together because they are all so focused on their ipads, phones, etc. Many studies have showed how the internet and social websites can isolate a child even more because of all they time the spend on websites such as face book and myspace. All these websites even create an unhealthy addiction for teens that can cause trouble and issues. Such issues would include meeting up with a stranger they meet on the internet or stepping up and talking behind each other’s back on the internet. This can cause fights that lead from a simple online conversation to a big deal at school, work, or on the street.
Besides online sites, the only time families do sit next to each other all they do is watch tv for hours without saying one word to one another. The internet has made the world a smaller place, which is nice to reach someone in a blink of a second. However, wider for the one-on-one relationships. It is extremely disastrous for the family life at home. With the use of technology, families actually spend more time face timing or web camming instead of actually talking to one another in person. I know I have spend multiple minutes on my phone at dinner before as well, which is why it bothers me now. It is taking so much of our precious time and we hardly even realize it.
