his is the common trend seen in every home now a days , where teens live .
TTechnology has changed the world in recent 5 years to a great extent . It ' s like a revolution in today ' s teenage life . It is using us , instead of using it . The youth today are becoming more and more attached to their technology . Relationships are being built online or through phones . KEYPADS AND KEYBOARDS are becoming the keys of success .
Youth are in the JAWS of NEW TECH DISEASE- FOMO . It means fear of missing out anything on internet or on mobile phones . They do not want to miss a single update or reply or something else of their interest . If they miss something , it will be considered as a big disappointment for them . Technology provides a way of communication , but is becoming the only way to communicate with today ' s youth because it has made face to face interactions less frequent and has made a negative effect on the social abilities of the youth .
Non internet users spend 12.6 more minutes on average doing social activities such as parties , sporting events . Internet user spends 34.3 minutes less than non internet users with family and friends . Those who do not switch off the computer , switches of all personal relationships with family and friends . Teens do not want to miss a single click on the internet , they can be seen texting anywhere , like at the dinner table , at the movies , on the roads etc . we know that
CONSUMING ANYTHING TO A GREAT EXTENT LEADS TO A BIG DESTRUCTION
So use technology for your benefits . Don ’ t become that more virtual that you became totally detached with the real world .
