No technology? No way!


                                                                















With technology, everything is different


Albert Einstein once said: "I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots." That phrase caught my attention because the reality we are living today is an advantage and a disadvantage that children have technology at their fingertips. A positive aspect is that they become very smart, but the negative of this is that we can not treat them like children who are rather a joke and analyzed what we told them and correct us saying is not funny because it is not so that way is another and it's annoying.

Children and adolescents with an electronic element in their hands can develop many skills and knowledge of many things or they can do school work, but the problem is that they might have an addiction or dependency or Internet device. It's okay for them to have these opportunities, but moderately. It is strange to the society seen children with a cell phone, maybe they need it or maybe not, but it is not necessary for them. The only cases in which they can be required is when the parents of the child are separated, so they can be in communication with them.

In my opinion electronic devices such as computers, tablets, smart phones and other must be for college students or employers where they need technology . I think teenagers of 15 years could have a cell phone because it is an age where they are a little more responsible and parrents are a little more liberal, but still care about their children and take knowledge of them so that age is necessary to have a mobile phone . Today family dinners have changed thanks to technology , many families do not agree with this as being seated at the table with family sharing, but they are distracted by the technology, like my grandmother said at my times families would sit and talk about everything and she missed it because is not the same to be with them that dial a number and called them, visiting the family has also lost a lot, so we have to let go of the technology and be more concerned about our family.
