Younger Generations and Technological Influence

Is it just me or are kids today becoming more and more addicted to technology. In all seriousness, I wonder how they would survive back in the 50s and 60s when there was barely television. I also feel then increase in technology has a connection to the younger generations of children and childhood obesity because so many kids today would rather sit at home and play video games on their PlayStation 3, Skype/oovoo with friends (rather than visit them, and still sit around and watch TV! Technology has made many generations become dependent but especially the younger one's who I think could not survive without cellphones, ipods, laptops, or gaming stations. What ever happened to the good ol' days of just hanging outside and playing a sport? or anything outdoors for that matter! Technology, while is good, has its bad side too; which could generate a massive following of soon to be closet cases/shut-ins to the world outside because they have to be on the computer 24/7.... Just an opinion :)


Good Luck
