!!Stop texting and read my entry!!

After reading the two articles about parents' issues in using technology and how they affect their children, I have been shocked by plenty of things.
Firstly, I want to talk about the Campbell. What i am saying is that their story can make some really great arguments. They can be without of doubt one of the most exclusive and wealthiest family that have ever been read about. A son with two monitors aside with his Iphone sat perfectly on his desk? A 8 year old daughter with all those devices that you can dream of having just one which to me is totally unnecessary for a second grader to own? And what about their parents, what do they have? Of course they would have got themselves some even cooler gadgets. I mean cool enough for a business man selling internet start-ups and a librarian who was just trying to catch up with her husband and kids. They tend to rely and use technology way so much that it isn't needed talking about their times spent for family, which we all know- not much- but just count the money they spent on electricity every months and we can find some really shocking things.
Another things amazed me is how computer users change windows and check email for 37 times an hour. The bit where they check email is nothing special because it is their job to resolve messages and similar stuff but the fact that they change their windows for 37 times an hour is quite weird. Most of the windows just share the same features and functions, maybe some will run faster and more efficient but still, these computers users must had got themselves many spare times in hands to just change windows like that.

So yah, to sum up I think the overuse of technology of some person just because they are so random or maybe they just want to spend their money away should really be concerned as nowadays we have much more other things to actually use technology for(like me right now for example, I’m using electronic device for my English homework!!) :)
