Don't get me wrong, I love technology and I use it every day, but this is really becoming a problem with children, teens and young adults. Nobody looks at you in the eye anymore, and all everyone cares about these days are their likes, followers and instagram pictures.
We are five siblings in my family (I'm the oldest) and thanks to them, I've really been able to see how much youth has changed this past decade. It's not good, and we really need to change that since I feel that our future generations will just become mindless robots that do nothing but look at their screens and communicate through them instead of using their voice. Also we have a saying that "This generation's yawn is the smartphone". Every time someone yawns another person usually yawns as well... Same concept with phones, someone uses their phone and then someone else quickly grabs their phone and does the same. A chain reaction if you will.
Ah, what a time to be alive! (I'm not a grumpy old man complaining about technology by the way, I'm 19 :P)
