Nowadays, technology is one of the most controversial and concerning topics for all people, specially for parents because it involves young people and it directly affects the familiar union. Looking into the statistics we clearly see that there’s a big difference between traditional families and the families of today. This difference is thanks to many causes, but the main cause is technology.
First of all, technology has a lot of advantages such as the facility in obtaining new information that used to be classified and only some people had access to it. Today we see that children of the world are more intelligent than they used to be, thanks to all the educational programs that are shown in television, and facilities on the internet. It is easier to find their homework. Children have more agility, thanks to video games and are cleverer because they do more activities that stimulate their brains and always make them to want to know more new things and be interested about new technologies that will make their lives easier.
Another advantage is that technology helps people saving time in their daily activities, such as paying bills, send different kind of files from work to work or referring to students, they could do homework and send it easier, in any location of the world. It connects people around the world, by different programs that are easy to install in any computer, you can talk to a relative and see them trough a camera or listen to them with a simple click.
The big disadvantage is that parents have no the same control of their children because they have access to anything they want inside of their rooms. They have no control in what their children are looking at, for example children can search inside of material that is not appropriate for their age, such as pornography material and stuff that will create a bad attitude and bad behavior in them. They have also lost the habit of reading that develops great values, intelligence and happiness.
To conclude, we can see that families are also lost, because they don’t have the same communication and they don’t spend a lot of time together, because they are occupied with a lot of technological things such as computers, video games consoles and television.
