Put it down!

In all honesty, technology has made a positive and negative impact on everyone. I appreciate the idea of technology, but sadly, we keep focusing on the wrong things when using it. I also deal with this issue. When it comes to technology, many people use it for social media. Social media has given us all the opportunity to talk to friends and family and give us the ability to update our close ones on how our lives are going, sadly, social media has taken a huge turn, and how people use it to impress strangers. Many people add other people they don’t even know their socials which is both crazy and surprising. Due to unhealthy social media usage, people have gained many insecurities, kids typically see inappropriate content, and damages one's mental health. Some solutions could be to limit the amount of time spent on social media, also to assign parental controls on the kid's devices, lastly, to use it for health purposes. Such as, talking to friends and family or using it for research. The more time you spend outside of using social media, the happier you might be.

It’s best to see your friends in person rather than spend your time talking to them through a small little device on an app. You’ll have more memorable moments and it’ll be way more fun!
