Negative effects of technology

[markyy]

Technology is not always a good thing.

One example is with the children.
In the old days, children used to play outside with their friends.
Now majority of them are just staring at their iPads.

People become obese, with depression, pretend to be what they are not, lack social ties, become addicted to technology

In forums, social networks people pretend to be what they are not... they become actors  and have lack of empathy

Technologies aren't always as good as we think. There's also a negative effect to the humans because technology teaches the humans not to strive or work hard because technology help them do the works in easy ways.

Children becomes lazy. They aren't physically fit because they don't play outdoor games which requires physical, mental, and emotional skills. They become introvert and doesn't know how to communicate to other or socialize to other. They ain't experiencing the true happiness of playing with your friends outdoor and lastly they become a low resistance person.

They become weak with little outdoors activity. Parents want to keep their children safe indoors, but at the same time their kids become less agile to the outside world later on in life.

By using their iPads all day along. Another impact will be overeating while sitting down and obesity will become a huge problem.

Yes i agree with you. Some children of these century don't know the activities outside. They just focused on playing games online/lan.
When they woke up the one thing they looking for they're gadget (cellphone/tab) or open desktop/laptop.
Not just like the past time. Children looking for friends outside and play with them.

Distracted driving (using technology while driving) is now killing more people than impaired driving.

     I am strongly agree with you. Technology has a disadvantage with children nowadays. Compare to the old days, children now become addict to games in cellphone, tablets, laptop or in personal computer. It has also have a bad effect to their healthy, Long time usage of gadgets will affect in your eyes because of its radar. Just limit your children's time to play with their gadgets and just makes sometime to play outside.

Look at any modern disaster, hurricane, earthquake, etc. People are losing the ability to be 100% responsible for themselves.
Think about it, are you capable of walking out of a disaster (you have survived obviously) and surviving without input from the outside world for a number of days? Or will any interruption of our modern day be a crippling experience?

[Suzan]

I definetely agree that technology isn't a good thing.  Most children are introduced to tech since they're early, and I think it effects the way they speak and behave. They can't control their saying and they can't behave politely.

technology was created to make life easier,
 but nowadays men abuse the used of technology.
 the latter result are negative,  people are lack social life because they always in the font of their gadgets.
 they don't know how to mingle with other, they lose their capability to became sociable.
the use of technology must be in balance so the other factor shouldn't be affected.

In such cases it is necessary to make claims to the parents of such children. You can not allow your child to use the iPad or other gadgets on a regular basis. It is often necessary to travel outside the city, into the forest or to the lake, to breathe fresh air.

I guess it helps the person somehow indirectly formed a habit of being lazy. When technology comes nowadays almost everything is just a click away from food to gadgets. Almost everything are push bottons.

People are very specialised in this modern world - to a point where they are almost helpless in other affairs. Modern Man would not fare well in any disaster if it would last more than a few weeks.

Technology has a big impact in people especially in children. Technology has a positive and negative effect in our body and in our emotion. Many people are being addict because of technology like using of gadgets and social media. People also learn how to disobey oders from other because of being addict to social media.

The negative effects of technology are :
1. Technology are teaching the people how to lazy
2. People are being depending in technology
3. People are being addicted in Technlogy
There are some of the effects of technology. Nowadays people are useless without technlogy they feel bored if technlogy were not created .

Distracted driving (using technology while driving) is now killing more people than impaired driving.  

I see this a lot in my countey. Drivers on the phone while driving has become almost a fashionable trend in the world today. They don't just make a call, some of them ping and type away while driving. Sadly, this has frequently led to accidents and expectedly lost of lives. We can effortlessly say this is one negative affecfs of the modern technology and management of it.

Technologies have only improved human life, but they need to be used wisely so that it does not harm themselves and others. I really like modern progress and I think it's good.

yes technological progress is a good thing but we humans do not forget social interaction, we are now like idiots or indeed idiots because every club or discussion meeting there is sure to be playing his cell phone.

Use of technology affects health. It does so by first affecting the way of thinking. The increased used of technology such as mobile phones or video games by children affects how their brains work. Secondly, technology affects health through causing obesity. Spending more time on watching television increased snacking of unhealthy foods.

Technology is just very helpful, yes, because technology is there to help people have a more easier and convenient life. Having said that, that also is the main reason why many youth of today did not developed their sense of responsibility and compared to much older times, most of our works today are just not or can't meet their standards. One good example is the pyramid, people at the past was able to create it without the help of our modern tools or technology today. Now if we are given the task to build the same thing without giving us the modern tools that we need, I believe we would just walk away and complain.
