Technology and communication

Do you think that this Generation is over connected? In one of my English Assignment we were asked to write a personal response on "Are you over-connected?" I do believe we are over connected since the introduction of technology/internet, we no longer communicate with each other in the traditional sense. However,if we retire our devices and converse with each other, this problem will soon be a thing of the past. We need a sense of balance- do not spend all your time on your device, set aside time for the family.

Technology, not only destroy our ability to communicate, it also "butchers" the English language. Eg Brb,Lol ,GM. It has become a significant part of our lives and was invented to make our life easier; however the same technology has complicate them. We depend on technology to solve all our problem, our ability to think will be practically non-existent. As the saying "I fear the day technology was surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots". 

Lets learn to appreciate each other's company and set aside the technology and converse with each other. 

Just my opinion. Feel free and leave a comment.
