Addicted to Your Smartphone?

I've started to notice more and more the number of times you walk down the street and all you see are people, head down, Smartphone in hand. Lost in their surroundings. they look up very fast to be  sure they aren't going to crash into someone and then off they go again, head down, surfing, texting, posting as they walk, jog, run, cycle and most annoyingly drive.

On the bus for example reading newspapers, is becoming a thing of the past.

Should we use our smartphone when meeting up with friends?

  

I remember when i was at a party last week with some friends. In the middle of the conversation one of them took a photo of the group with their i-phone and posted it on Facebook. Then as they started to get comments on the photo they began to pay more attention to their phone than the rest of the group.

Also yo can notice this on children

they used to play on parks , but now you can notice in the image below, they prefer enjoy a virtual world , for thi s reason i think that kids must not have a smartphone because it interrupt their normal growth and development.

Actually talking on the phone is so old school. People text everywhere—at school, in the mall, on the bus, at home, and in bed when they’re supposed to be sleeping. people love texting because they can be instantly in touch with friends, no matter where they are .

In my opinion it's ok to be close to our friends when we are alone but we should be close to the people that are around us and we might put away our smartphons at this moment.

even in the streets you should not texting to the phone, you can't notice what's happening because  you are in your  parallel world , not paying attention to the hazards in the streets, you must pay attention to cars on the tracks, also the thieves can steal your device taking advantage of your distraction.

My conclusion is that there is time for everything,hanging out with friends, work, study, etc. And during our free time why not enjoy in the benefits to own a smartphone.
