Technologies bad or good?

Technologies bad or good?

Technology today helps us for a lot of things, in example for work and for school, people will also use it to entertain themselves. Despite all these positive points, I have often lived some situations when I am with my friends and their eyes are fixed on their screens. When such a situation occurs, it is not always pleasant and often it is quite frustrating. Especially teenagers have a harder time letting go of their cell phones because they grew up with technology. I find it a shame, because now it can be difficult to have a real conversation with people without it being texting or just speaking while they aren't on their phone. So, in general, when I go do activities with my friends I want to make the best of the present moment I have with them and let my phone in my bag or any place I won't tend to take it.

We need to be aware of the reality, because our use of these new technologies could contain more negative effects on humans and strongly outweigh the positives. However, must not forget that a clear evolution has been in our daily. If I take for example, microwaves and dishwasher, we use these technologies every day and probably none of us could live without it. I think that technology is very helpful and I think it is great, but we shouldn’t always be on it and start to live more real life and appreciate every moment without our cell phones.
