Whose Opinion Is It?

Save to My Favourites

CD1 track 24 Well, a lot of people believe that technology has a really negative impact on young people and their interaction skills. Apparently, teenagers no longer know how to communicate with each other. Well, at least this is what I keep hearing on TV. As far as I’m concerned, it isn’t always the case. Most teenagers I know are bubbly individuals who talk to their friends all the time, don’t you think?

Yes, sure. But what’s changed is their medium of communication. They chat online, text each other, or express themselves through blogs, for example. However, at the same time, I must agree with some experts that more should be done to encourage face-to-face interaction among young people. How do you see that?

Why don’t they just meet up without their smartphones and computers and just chatter on? Though some skeptics say it’s impossible these days. Well, I guess we adults should talk with youngsters more often too. Not convinced. Teenagers aren’t fond of discussing things with adults.

Oh, I disagree with that.
