Some people believe that technology has made man more social. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? does the technology make humans more communicative and kind? Technological advances, especially in terms of the internet and social media, have changed our lives dramatically. It seems that people are more in touch with each other these days, through Facebook, Twitter, etc., but does it mean that they are more social? Technology has had a great impact on humans’ lives and facilitated communications. For instance, smart phones, which are now an indispensable part of daily routines, have connected people with each other and the world. Parents can see their children who have migrated to another country through video calls any time they intend to. People can easily access to their friends and get updated about them by using Facebook or Instagram. On the other hand, there is a concerning trend which shows that deaths of despair (deaths caused by suicide, drug overdose or violence) are growing among youths because of the lack of real relationships which they can count on. It seems that despite the quantity of different connections which young people have, by means of social media, email, cellphones and other technological innovations, they feel lonely inside. They are very busy and connected with each other, while they do not have intensive deep relationships and enough talking or hugging. To conclude, even though that technology has enabled us to get in touch with our beloved ones, especially when we are far apart, I personally believe that it also makes us feel lonely and hopeless because of the lots of unreliable different relationships which are made by these technological developments. Our dependence on social media is such that we cannot spend a day with them.
