ISLAMABAD: Nowadays, it seems that we are attached more and more towards technology. Yesterday, it was used only for business purposes, but now it has become a part of our lives. Approximately 88% of teens between the ages of 12-17 own a cell phone. We are engaged in cell phone so much that we have started ignoring the people around us. Texting has become the best hobby or past time of youth.
We have given so much importance to the cell phones that we are always holding a cell phones in our hands and texting at the events, universities, gatherings, dinner table and at the worship places as well.
Although cell phone can be very beneficial in emergency because there is always a need of communication between one another but now teens cannot spend their single day without cell phones.
Teens love to texts rather than calling so they keep their all concentration in the cell phones.
Texting has kept us away from expressing our feelings and ideas.
Approximately 62 % teen’s texts and 38% make calls.
We feel more privacy in texting when people are around.
Excess use of mobile phone creates psychological disorder.
We get depressed if we didn’t get response to our texts and calls.
Teens are destroying their lives talking to strangers especially girls.
We should break our private little world.
Cheap packages have made teen’s involvement in texting, calling and social networking.
Parents have to be aware towards their child if the child is spending too much time in cell phones.
This is an issue that has to have an action because it has become addiction and we should use it only when is important rather than whole day.
