Technology Takeover

     A real concerning problem in todays society is the reliance of technology that children, teens, and adults use. Children are brought up from a very young age to live on the computer and begin to believe that this is normal. Teenagers are so consumed by technology. Texting terms are being brought into academic papers and are losing contact with reality. Teenagers and adults are now living in a fantasy land. Society is now ruled by texting. We live in a world where socialization among two unknown people is inexistent. A conversation cannot be sparked now and we need texting to communicate. Jobs are being lost due to the lack of social skills and we must take action to this. It isn't going to happen today or tomorrow. It is a long process and it starts with parents teaching kids that there are other ways to communicate and other things to do rather than always relying on technology. It is sad to see a generation turn to this but this is the new world that we live in and will continue to live in without change today.
