Negative effects of technology

[Terpercaya]

yeah well, so much negative and positive results that mix up into the big question mark

when a boy starring at phone time by times, he has fallen to a journey into that negative and positive things. his eyes are officialy getting worse, he begin to find some sh*t things about internet, he stars to forget about outside playground. but in same time, he learns so much about knowledge from internet, having some best teachers from the creative education content from internet, perhaps he will find his new skills.

when we put kids into this issue, well i think the result gonna be .. mixed up but more with negative. but since your title tells me a wider subject than just kids. which i will put the other one, teen to adult.. my perspective's result is .. technology is such a good aspect of our current step of life, you are an teen to adult which you can controll your self well, better than kids. so you can separate the - and + from internet.

Fair point. But how about if we deviate from that context. Doesn't technology have other adverse effects in the world. Climate change etc. Well I can never really say that technology has made a lot of things worse - it is really is man who used it and perceived it as such. But still we can never deny the negative effects technology contributed in the world.

have we guys found the strongest answer of this twirling question?, don't you realize no matter how long the debate will take, or how many the result from each sides .. we still can't get over it. Just admit it, Internet has destined to have these 2 sides, there always be positive and negative for every stuffs in our world.

Technology isn't good or bad, it's only a tool and it all depends on how you use it.

[hexitor]

Yes, indeed you are right the technologies create many negative points as a fast addiction or still the fact that we are in insecurity. However I who am a teenager I use them regularly because they allow me to keep in touch with my friends and to share videos and musics. I think that you should not see that their inconveniences.

Technology has a big help they can do fast our work. just sample that before we are using email without internet it takes few days or weeks before arrived now we can use sms message and email in internet or do facebook that can face to face chat or video chat..
we can now go anywhere in the world with airplains. or we can make a machine that can help us to speed our work..
So for me only the negative effect we are expose to more radiation and i am afraid whole world our power will gone..

The technology itself is not negative. What always matters is how people use it. In fact, such problems always happen. People are always complaining about their generation differences.
Do you think this is a problem for children born in so much technology? Are children complaints about spending time with iPads or playing computer games? Will these children have similar complaints for their children in the future?

[novemberwoah]

Yes indeed if the technology is not used properly there will be negative effects. As you say, the children are already familiar with the outside world is very limited because it is too focused with his/her gadget. That would make children become lazy to socialize physically, due to they are already focused on virtual worlds. It was not only in children but also in adults. In addition it is possible if wrong uses the technology, children will easily access porn sites. It was not good in my opinion because they are not old enough. It may be necessary supervision of a parent in order to restrict the use of technology such as gadgets to children.

I've overlooked this one. And come to think of it. These should be really taken into account and should be act upon with urgency and great deal of seriousness. Porn exposure and obscene viewings can really impact a child's growing pattern. This may actually induce a serious effect on the childhood development. I really feel now that any government agency should take responsibility how to manage this concern.

Absolutely, a porn site today is very easily accessible by children. It is the problem of the negative effects that technology is now being faced in my country. Children perform oral sex and even they are not shy to post on social media, their morale has been damaged by easy access to porn sites. This will greatly affect the life and mindset of those in the future, the government is moving too late to handle this. There must be more action to be done so that the children could be saved from the negative effects of technological progress.

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.

True! you have a very good point there my friend and its really bad today because kids don't even go outside to play and it needs to have that energy because you can obtain it once you grow older but when technology has come kids today always lazy and stubborn my brother is one of them his freaking stubborn and beginning to gain weight. technology make's people eyes damaged and also their brain to gain less knowledge from the outside and not having any friends but i am really happy so see does kids who don't have the technology to buy and they played outside like a good old days those who have technologies don't  have a good childhood memory and they don't know the feeling to be free and get mud dirty in playing with friends

You're right. It's dual edged especially for family relationship and interactions. It's good because communication can be easy for family members that are away from their homes and it makes interaction between family members accessible almost as if they're not that far away. I remember the days when snail mail is the main type of communication for people. Now it's almost instant if you have to have a conversation with someone far away. Though it also is bad as people who are living together, sometimes have more time on their gadgets than actually talking to each other. In very ironic that people who are farther away from each other can be closer, and people who are with each other can be distant because of the effects of technology

I agree with you. Just informed generation to grow up on other principles. Fathers will never understand children because they subconsciously seek in the past, where they all knew and where he stayed their youth.

There aren't any negative effects of technology. The negative effects come about from some people using the technology in bad ways.

[philggg]

Technology it self have good and negative effect on our environment, children always like to watch television, play games and they don't want to read there books,they will be giving take home assignment and they will not do it rathery busy with social media  which affect there performance in class,also cars buses are invented to move people from one place to the other but it as also killed s lot of people through motor accident

It is about the citizen who will use the technology, some people using it in bad ways, but some people using it in good ways. For children, if they are young, it can be distraction for his social life, it can be addiction. Addicting in games, could be his one of the hardest part of his life.

Very true indeed. Everything is actually relative to the one who is subjected to it. And also to the one managing it. The manager should be responsible to the moderation. And the subject is responsible whether or not to use it for good only.

Trust is really tested now with relationships. People having access to all these resources, to be able to talk to pretty much anyone all times of the day. You have to really trust your significant other.

They are playing with their friends still just not outside. Ever heard of multiplayer games?

Well I guess they do. But still it feels really different from the way childhood supposed to be.

[Sahyadri]

In the old days children were sent to school when they were 5 or 6 years old

Now they are sent to school at the age of 3.

Due to the pressure to study they get less exposure to outdoor activities and more exposure to indoor activities.

Technology effects are not always positive but negative ones. Most important from my point of view are:

- The adherence to the machine, and materialistic mentality has as a result the indifference to spiritual cultivation.
- The Intellectual unilateralism and the obsession for technological perfection leads to lose of the measure.
- Passivation of the human being, since the machine has replaced the human thought   weakens the critical thinking and fruitful reflection 
- The deterioration of the creative imagination has as a consequence the directed intention, and easy acceptance of messages.
- People's alienation, loneliness and crisis of interpersonal relationships and values (family, religion, etc.)

I grew up playing outside with my friends. We didn't have computers or consoles back then. Even when we did get them (Atari 2600) we still played outside more than on the TV. I guess times have changed people. Fear of getting your kids kidnapped and the easy on hand babysitter, the computer/console/TV. I think we made them this way. The adults fault not the kids.
