Technology has an impact on everything it encounters, but one of the most prominent aspects technology has impacted in our society is our children. Our children are exposed to immense amounts of technology. Between school and home, their entire day is based of the use of technology. My little cousin is 4 years old, and he is a pro at the game Angry Birds. Where did he learn how to play it? Well, on his own personal tablet of course. Technology has taken over the creativity of children. Instead of making up a game, kids are turning to their ipads and mobile devices to get them through awkward situations or situations they just don't want to be in. We are replacing conversations with our newborns with a TV screen. Our children are being brainwashed and it's all because of our generation allowing it.
