Technology

In the last decade, technology has advanced extremely fast and people all over the world use the new advances very fast too. In the US, practically every regular citizen has a computer in his house, and every year the quantity of computers in each house increases. Besides the need, US citizens make an abuse of the use of technology which leads to the distortion of communication in a family. They almost don't talk between them because they are always busy working, surfing the web, chating, checking or sending e-mails. They even send instant messages to each other when they are in the same room instead of just say or shout it. I think people can't manage technology and its constant growth, so they don't measure the amount of it they use every day. This brings very bad consequences in terms of the relation between the members of a family that don't communicate at all and loose all sense of normal connection.
