Some people might say that technology is a definite positive development with only positive changes. However, although the technological advance have been and is extremely helpful to everyone around the world, people need to think about how people can be too consumed in the technology that they can isolate themselves from the outside world even. Having fun with technology is normal, but we must not forget how to really communicate without the use of texting or email. Communicating face-to-face should be a key skill humans should never lose.

It brings you great gifts with one hand, and it stabs you in the back with the other.” (Technology-The Great Enabler, 2003) As we dissect Snow’s observation it is very evident in the world we live in works because of technology. Looking at a few examples like, work, school, media and all of our hobbies are technology related. By the help of technology, a message can be delivered from one side of the planet to the other in no time. Contrastingly, technology can also destroy the planet and its living beings by the use of one powerful nuclear weapon. The rapid increase in technologies are making human nation forget that we are born in nature. In the same context, communication technology also presents its pro’s and con’s. The question that “is technology tearing apart family life and relation?” is a very interesting topic, yet a very delicate one. By the studies conducted no definite answer comes through; however by looking at the research, theories and results provided it can be said that it does more good to the relation of the family then bad. Therefore, it is safe to say, technology is improving and increasing family relations among children and parents, especially through the communication modes of texting, social networking and video chatting.…

Technology has brought tremendous changes to human lives. It literally changes everything. The start of the new millennium has brought remarkable changes in global perspectives.
