We live in a world where technology dominates everything even ourselves. 20 or 30 years ago we could read literature or watch science-fiction movies where robots ended up dominating humanity, nowadays we have arrived to something similar, technology started to dominate our social behaviours, our relationships, our way of working, creating addicted people somehow submitted to new technologies.
There are numerous scientific research that show serious consequences of the disproportionate use of new technology: for example, in children we see a decrease in memory, a decline in school grades, they're not developing the part of their brain that's a muscle that needs to be developed for singular focus.
A recent study by the London School of Economics suggested that schools in which mobile phone were banned, children's test scores increased by more than 6%.
Some doctors argue that the reason we feel stressed by all this new technology is because our brains are not used to doing what we ask them to do.
We are in the future, it is not sciencie-fiction anymore, will we know how to coextist with new techonologies or will they end up dominating us?
Technology is a wonderful thing if we use it properly, and we need to use it properly.
This article is very interesting because the pathological use of Internet and other new technologies can affect anyone, but we see with concern how it affects every day more often to children and young people of both sexes, to the point that they have called the 'net' generation.

Technology is addicting, it is especially effective on children. Be it cell phones, tablets, computers, technology hooks children. we need to use it properly!
I think the technology not is the problem, like smart people that we are , we need know the right use for these technologies. We need get used to an appropriate behavior for a better use of the technology.
