1 in 5 teens use their phone for pictures they would not show to their parents (cough, cough).....
That does not sound like something good to hear.
1 in 5 teens and 1/3 of young adults say they have sent almost naked pictures to someone else before.
Nearly one quarter of teens say that technology makes them personally more forward and aggressive.
.....And nearly 40 percent of teens believe that exchanging sexual content with others makes dating more likely.
This is really scary. First off there are online predators. Not to mention people with bad intentions who do not care about respecting your body because you do not respect yourself. The sad part is that the 40 percent of teens that believe dating will happen because they are going to make the other person fall inlove with their charm and wits will not work when there is this image stuck into their mental hard drive. Girls fall fast into this. A love partner does not come in express. So trying to hurry life up will not make it go any faster. It will just make it harder.
I really believe that the availability of things to people is causing them to want to give everything up so they can receive it all as fast. Appreciation is something that is often assumed but never applied. People's ideals on making life easy makes them forget the value of what someone cannot have just like that. ♥

I think it's really scary that technology is enabling us to become these monsters. :-x Do we still control our machines, or do they now control us?
