Like all life changes advances in the world, technology can be both beneficial and harmful. Clearly the internet has given us a way to connect with others, more news than one needs to know, recipes for cooking, a way to meet a mate, and a way to conduct business.
But the internet has also led to many problems, people can be scammed easily, your personal information is easily available, and spending countless hours in front of a screen can damage eye sight, negative impact on your body, and foster a sense of alienation from others. Lately it also seems to be a way for others that are disturbed to express hate language.
Cell phones are clearly invaluable these days but I am sadden tp see young people so absorbed with their phone that they no longer can see what is around them. And there are obscure consequences, for example, young folks that have grown up with google maps to get around, lose some of their capacity to navigate space. I suggest adopting a rule of no cell phones at the dinner table, and no use of a cell phone when driving.
