The average teenager doesn’t know their limit when it comes to use of technology.Teenagers are known for being young and careless. What happens when we past the point of simple games we play leading to something more dangerous. Its a proven fact that every little thing we do comes with consequences. Now the consequences i’m talking about are not being grounded for a week. They are much bigger than just that. These consequences I’m speaking of ,affect our health according to “New York Times Company/ Katie Hafner/ (May 2009)”.
Text messaging is something that we all must do nowadays. This young generation is taking advantage of this privilege.They are text messaging when they are suppose to be asleep at night , which is leading them to become sleep deprived and it seems welcoming insomnia with open arms.Not only that they are text messaging each other during class since we believe we can for the fact of us being the sly dogs we are. Text messaging is becoming a bigger part of our lives than it should be. Some are able to do it while they cross the street,in class, and while they are out at a restaurant instead of just putting our phones away according to “New York Times Company/Katie Hafner/ (May 2009)”. Slowly we are going to lose our social skills due to this.Will the modern teenager be able to face this struggle or put their health at  hazard for their selfish “needs”?

  1. This is very true. We all text throughout the day on a daily basis. Sometimes we even take advantage of texting in places and events where we should be physically socializing with other people, such as at parties. However, we also take for granted the possible health risks that come along with it. This is a very interesting and realistic post.

  2. The blog is interesting and mostly true. We don't use technology for what it was made for. Then again, we take the risks into our own hands.

  6. This blog is absolutely correct. Teenagers probably have never sent a letter in the mail, making them completely dependent on technology. I can relate to this blog and so can others. Good job.

  7. This blog is really striking. It tells teenagers what they don't want to hear: that they put phones and other technology ahead of what their supposed to be doing and it can affect not only their health but their very lives.

  8. Aside from a few minor typos, this blog is actually extraordinarily informative. Teens (or people in general) are usually at risk when texting; many people actually die from texting in many instances, which you have mentioned one - when crossing the street. People from all over the world must see this blog so that they could learn the errors of their ways.
