Technology ruins society ?

Technology has always been around but I feel that now it's bigger than ever especially when it comes to phones it's like having a computer in your hands at every time of the day no matter where you are. It's something that you see in everybodys hands you hardly see anyone without a phone that's not being used. This takes a huge toll on us because it's ruining our social skills. Now a days being around friends or even family isn't the same because all their attention is being put into their phones. Yes we may be sitting in front of each other but our eyes are glued on our screen while we are talking eye contact is never used I feel that we have to be able to talk face to face. This also goes with texts and emails because sometimes we're afraid to speak to someone or we're too lazy to just talk to one another and we find it easier to do these things over the internet or through a text. By doing this it's also more time consuming it takes twice the time when you email or text than by giving somebody a phone call or seeing them in person this takes half the time. I feel that this will continue to be the same as the years go by the more smart phones that come out the more people will want them & i feel that we abuse the technology we have and we need to think about the old times when we didn't have our phones how different our lives were back then.
