Technology Crisis! By: Jade Dupuis

Of course technology is extremely important for research's and discoveries, but what about the social aspect of it? Modern culture is ruining our generation and generations to come because it causes trouble, it takes away social life, and hides true identities.

Firstly, modern culture causes trouble in numerous ways, but the most important one would be bullying. People do not even have the courage to intimidate other people face to face, instead they hide behind their electronic device. Hiding, this leads to an other problem. Teens are so used to interact with text messages that when it is time to talk to someone or are faced with a problem , they do not even know what to do. Now, of course there are a lot more but those would probably be the most important ones.

Secondly, it ruins the social life of teenagers. Ever heard your parents say: " when I was your age, we would...." of course you have, and they are totally right! Our parents used to go outside all the time and play a sport or a game with their friends. Now , teens are simply isolated from all this and are constantly on their electronic devices as if life depended on it.

Thirdly, it hides true identities. Yes, it has become that bad! Some people become so addicted that it's as if they are not even in the real world, they are somehow creating a virtual life by hiding behind some screen. This suddenly becomes their life, and once they are drained into it, it's very hard to stop.

In conclusion, modern technology is ruining our generation and many more to come since it creates
trouble, it takes away social life, and it hides identities. It's not ruining us entirely but we need to do something before it's too late!
