Technology is ruining human contact!!


This picture is one of the many problems technology has created today. Everyone whether they are five or fifty, are always found on their phones, laptops, and other devices. It has gotten so bad that I even see children (about two years old) playing with ipads and iphones all the time as well. Besides the fact that these people are spending so much of their and brain activity on these devices, they are taking sweet time with their loved ones away too. I have witnessed multiple times that friends get together to hang out, yet end up texting other people. Or when families are at dinner, instead of talking to one another like they used to, they are either texting and focused on their phones or they are watching tv. This creates no bond between family or friends. Another issue with technology and texting is that many people have the ability to get a hold of someone in seconds because of emails, text messages, and phone calls. This is a great feature but again it rarely leaves room for one on one contact in person.
