Do people depend too much on computers?

Computers were invented years ago ,and became highly used by people. Computers have become part of everyone's life, from school to work. As computers keep becoming a part of our lives, they are getting more addictive. People couldn’t imagine their lives without computers anymore.

 Studies have shown that the rate of illiteracy in kids are increasing, because kids are learning off there computer. It’s shown teens will now use the internet instead of independently thinking and problem solving. Scientist have also shown it limits your creativity, because teens will now look to copy. Depending too much on computers won’t only affect teens and adults. It will affect younger kids learning how to spell, as spell check on the computer has done it for them. 

  I believe that we depend too much on computers. Scientists have shown that it affects the way people learn and do things. People don’t even shop in stores anymore; it's all online. All learning now is based on the computer in schools. I think it doesn't matter that we depend on computers because it makes life easier.

  • I think people depend a lot on computers way to much and I think it is terrible that we use computers every single day of our lifes because it is just not good for you to just stare at a computer all day. I think with out computers our life would be way different no social media, texting, or video games. I know it would change my life.

  • I think people depend too much on their computers. I think it's something bad because if the computer stops working you won't know what to do without it. Also that if you put really important information it can be dangerous because you can be hacked. I think it's difficult to change how much we use computers because everything it's getting more technological.

  • I think we definitely depend on computers, especially since covid hit since everyone had to school and work from their computers. I think computers are very important because they can make things easier for people to do their job/school work. If I didn't use a computer it would really only affect me with my homework.

  • I think in this day and age almost everyone is depending on computers and the internet. I do think it is bad because what will we do if something happens to it. I feel my life would be very different because I use computers and electronics every day. 

    • I agree becuase we would all be affect if computers and internet were deleted.

  • We do depend a ton on computers. Just think about the internet going down, all the teachers usually have to change their plans for the day. The amount we depend on computers is bad. We would have a lot more paper work and other sources of information in the world without computers.

    • I see why you might not like them but Computer do have a lot of advantages.

  • I don't think we are addicted to our computers as we are to our phones. Kids are on their computers in school because they can't have there phones if they could have there phones they would be on them. I do think we need our computers to get our homework and contact teachers.

  • I do think that our generation is very addicted to their electronics, not just a computer.  I do think it is bad that we depend so much on computers and electronics for everything.  Without a computer or just electronics in general I would probably get more things done throughout the day.

    • I agree because computer can take a lot of your time.
