The statistics really intrigued me. I completely agree that being engaged more than 10 hours a week with social media and such would make a person more unhappy. I remember when we had no technology at my house besides a tv and how happy I was to go outside to play, spend time with my friends, and being creative with my own talents. Starting the use of social media made me care more about what people thought, almost anxious in a way, and I noticed my happiness would go down the more I used an exceeded amount of technology. I highly recommend this article to others to read because It's very informative. It's an eye opener and makes you think twice about technology relating to everything in your life.

The first is that it is destroying the young. Social media promises an end to loneliness but actually produces an increase in solitude and an intense awareness of social exclusion. Texting and other technologies give you more control over your social interactions but also lead to thinner interactions and less real engagement with the world.

I found this to be the most true. People go on social edia look for friendship and companionship and really don't connect with anyone

I really like this quote because it is so accurate. I'm sure that I talk to my friends more now that I have a phone in front of my face 24/7, but I'm also sure that I spend less face to face time with family and friends than before due to being able to communicate and catch up with the click of a few buttons.

I think that's crazy how the more kids who use technology are more likely to say that they are unhappy. Makes sense how the risk for depression goes up though.

I believe technology is great and awesome tool for somethings but at the same time is hate seeing the traditional just sitting a reading a book go away.

"Imagine if tech pitched itself that way. That would be an amazing show of realism and, especially, humility, which these days is the ultimate and most disruptive technology."

Obviously there is good and bad with technology. I sat in on a presentation about cell phones and the average amount of time that we check our phones is every 7 minutes. I think that social media fills a void when you're bored and want someone to talk to in a sense that you get to see what everyone else is doing with their lives.

To me, i believe that this article; since it is labeled under the opinion section of the New York Times, was not very reflective of my opinion. I work with technology on a daily basis. I see the good and bad. There is way more good than there is bad, but people only tend to see the bad things in certain aspects anyways. Social Media is an amazing tool that can get news articles out on a moments notice. It all depends on the kid's responsibility level to see how they can use it for good. I do also believe that this article is COMPLETELY biased against technology.

I believe and agree that technology can be harmful more than helpful if it has something to do with social media. Technology although very useful has places where people can harm other people with words on a computer. There are even younger aged kids in this frenzy of social media 8th graders who can now be easily targeted because they are opened to a much bigger world. Technology is good but it can become evil in someone's hands.

To me, it was interesting that there are monopolies in the social media world, and generally the internet. The examples provided were Facebook, Google, Apple, and Amazon, which could prove true in some ways, though there are other websites that have a strong hold against them. Examples could include Twitter, Bing, Samsung, and recently, wish. Though there are a could points brought up, I don't agree with the article, as it was clearly bias against technology. After all, it is always hard to adapt, and those who are unable to adapt, point out all flaws, and offer anger instead. There are flaws, yes, but there is a plethora of good thanks to the internet, and a lot of people chose to ignore that.
