I think the reason that teens have been corrupted by technology is by easily paying attention to what's truly truly going on the world or listening to those who push for something impact the world in a negative way.

If we teenagers are listening to what's truly going on in this world, then why would we be listening to someone who is going to negatively impact the world. If we are truly paying attention, then we would be listening to good people with healthy ideas.

I feel like it makes more sense to say that, teens don't pay attention enough. Which is why they end up following negative things.

Shankle, A 1A

11/8/2023 01:42:37 pm

I agreed that technology is easily paying attention to what's going on in the world or listening to those who push for something that impacts the world in a negative way. Teens have technology It has been easier for us to do many things that help us to move forward or back.

Nicholas Parker 7B

I completely agree with your statement, i do believe the internet is corrupting the youth.

T Gray 1A

some consequences of how technology is impacting teens is because some teens can't live without their phone and that be eating them up alive.

Sergio Morales link

That's because of how normalized it is to be on your phone for that long. The phone was never meant to be a source of entertainment, it was a communication device that was made to make communication more efficient among people.

A Giles 6B

11/10/2023 07:10:19 pm

Exactly, I think it was a good idea to make use of the phones for other purposes but then again in the end they were made for a specific purpose but now it’s being over used for other things being a distraction for everybody.

K jacinto 4a

11/10/2023 11:58:49 pm

I agree, it’s like a sort of brainwashing

George Kessebeh 7B

11/13/2023 01:40:49 pm

Facts being on your phone 24/7 is a normal thing now a days .

Shankle, A 1A

11/8/2023 01:45:32 pm

It's true that us teens can't live without their phone and never force what's going on in front of them and listen to what they are missing in person.

george kessebeh 7b

11/13/2023 01:37:45 pm

Excessive use of technology can lead to a decline in face-to-face interactions, causing social isolation and potentially impacting the development of interpersonal skills, empathy, and emotional intelligence among teens .

D Manuel 1a

11/8/2023 04:11:06 pm

I agree, saying you can't live without something that didn't exist at one point is crazy. Too many people in this day and age are strictly relying on technology.

B Penson 7B

11/10/2023 09:06:54 am

I agree that most teens cant go without a phone and we rely too much on it

Nicholas Parker 7B

11/9/2023 11:31:17 am

i 100% agree with your statement, some teenagers cannot live without their phone.

N Smith 3a

11/9/2023 02:12:03 pm

I agree because most teens are addicted to their phones and some of them cant even function without it

George kessebeh 7b

11/13/2023 01:39:08 pm

i agree kids now a days are undisciplined with their phones .

It always ends up bad in the end. Society has sculpted itself to be the most negative thing with the power of the internet. Teenagers especially took the social media and made an entirely new world, that negatively affects people. "Oh you just found a job? Well why not celebrate this online? Oh no! You've been tracked down and there is someone to pleasantly stalk you at this new job." If you spread any information online, it will never leave the system. This is why simpler times, were better.

D Manuel 1a

11/8/2023 04:09:11 pm

I agree with this comment, technology does more bad than good and even though it does has its benefits, it would do some good for everyone to take a bit of a break from it.

C Valdez 1A

11/9/2023 11:52:11 am

I agree, I think technology ruins people's lives too easily. I think taking a break from social media or not being active is the best thing to do. People also need to learn not to make their lives public because it's permanent to prevent identity theft and stalking.

R Arpero 6B

11/9/2023 12:24:12 pm

I agree because even tho technology has many benifits it does more destruction.

Sanchez 6B

11/10/2023 09:34:38 pm

I agree that people's lives are destroyed by technology far too readily. I believe that the best course of action is to step away from social media or to stop using it altogether.

Shankle, A 1A

11/8/2023 01:37:52 pm

Many things can help us teens to impact life by learning it and having an easier way. For the good of the technology is that finding a job and for the bad is that who has a bank account and the teens still learning how it works and they could leave their bank unlocked and could be a hacker stealing their money.

C Da Silva 1A

11/9/2023 08:40:05 am

I agree that it has made a lot of things easier like finding a job which is good because you can even be interview online. The hacker thing is something that will always happen with online banking so it's best to make your account as secure as possible.

Cruz, D 3A

11/10/2023 07:54:16 pm

These are good examples of both the good and bad behind technology. I feel like we can easily make so many mistakes by technology that can affect things in our life, and the bank account statement shows that just because of a certain mishap, due to technology it could cause a whole scene.

D Manuel 1a

11/8/2023 04:07:21 pm

Technology has become more of a bad thing than a good one. With almost every piece of information stuffed into a rectangular device, a cell phone has become more of a crutch than anything. With things just a couple of clicks away teens tend to rely more on their devices than anything else.

C Da Silva 1A

11/9/2023 08:45:11 am

I agree because a lot of people now rely on their phone to do everything. It's not all negative though, because it has also made some things easier which is also important.

T Samuels 6b

11/9/2023 01:25:49 pm

I agree, teens do rely on there devices more since they have became easily accessible.

M Johnson 2 1A

11/10/2023 04:53:49 pm

The evolution of technology has been going on for years. The more it grows, the more things you can find and do. Along with this happening, the more people finds things to grow attached to. This causes use to be glued to our devices.

C, Ramirez 3A

11/10/2023 05:46:22 pm

I think technology hasn't become more of a bad thing, with all the social issues we are having, mistreatment, and abuse of power that is going on in the world, it's the best way one can be informed. It is also a great way to speak out and get your voice heard than never speaking out. We tend to rely on our devices more because our education system is not the best and a lot of the people of power like to hide what is going on in the world.

A Giles 6B

11/10/2023 07:14:22 pm

Yeah with phones they are being over used and way too powerful for its own good. It is something that we can never take away now that it is so well known and educated about. Phones are not dangerous physically but are mentally.

Sanchez 6B

11/10/2023 09:36:12 pm

I agree because a lot of folks these days do everything on their phones. It has, however, also made other things easier, which is equally significant, so it's not all bad.

C Da Silva 1A

11/9/2023 08:36:33 am

One way that it has impacted society is that it has led to a lot of people not thinking critically. Some people are so used to looking up the solution to something that it leads to them not wanting to do things on their own. One positive thing about technology is that it helps us stay in touch with others and also helps us stay informed.

C Valdez 1A

11/9/2023 11:54:19 am

I agree, technology is negative because it makes us too dependent on it after a while. I think being able to be informed and in touch with others is a good think too.

D Davis 6B

11/10/2023 02:25:52 pm

I agree, people have become so reliant on the answer to whatever question they have online, they don't want to do the work and hoping that it's avaliable online. I do like that technology allows people to stay in contact with each other.

Nicholas Parker 7B

11/9/2023 11:28:19 am

In my opinion technology has had a good effect on teenagers, because teenagers have a new way to network and meet new people. The internet can also be a bad thing because it will effect the way teenagers act in a social environment. They won't know how to socialize with one another.

N Smith

11/9/2023 02:17:15 pm

I agree Because its like nowadays rarely anybody talks to each other face to face anymore

D Davis 6B

11/10/2023 02:30:18 pm

I think so too. People are different online than how they are in person and that can lead to things being awkward between people.

C Valdez 1A

11/9/2023 11:38:19 am

I think technology has affected teens negatively because it wastes time too easily that could be used doing something more productive. Technology is also bad because teens can be too dependent on technology. Technology also wastes time when it's used in moments it shouldn't be used.

T Samuels 6b

11/9/2023 01:24:09 pm

I agree with you on that because technology has made teens miss out on numerous memories since they are glued to their phones.

E Martinez 1A

11/10/2023 08:43:25 am

I agree because teens could be more productive and learn more but they depend on there technology

Z.Woods 6B

11/10/2023 11:36:15 pm

I think you’re just looking at it on a negative side. You could easily be doing something productive with technology. Now days people are becoming rich just off the taps of their phone .

M Contreras 6B

11/10/2023 11:58:43 pm

It does in fact cause teens to waste time and procrastinate more. As well as cause them to be addicted. Which are some of the reasons as to why I agree with you.

R Arpero 6B

11/9/2023 12:22:54 pm

I believe that technology has affected us in a negative way becuse it has messed with our creativity and motivation.

T Samuels 6b

11/9/2023 01:22:11 pm

Technology's impact on teens and society is a mixed bag. On the positive side, it facilitates communication and learning. However, there are concerns about increased screen time, cyberbullying, and privacy issues. It's a delicate situation with both benefits and challenges.

S. Ross 4A

11/10/2023 12:27:07 pm

I agree that privacy issue play big part with technology like yea its nice having a phone but how do you know all your information is safe just because you have a password to a website .

C. Deane 6B

11/13/2023 10:38:23 am

I agree with you cyberbullying is really bad now a days with all the teens on the internet.

N Smith 3a

11/9/2023 02:16:00 pm

I think technology negatively impacts a teens life by them being to attached to it and the lack of face to face interactions with their peers with can lead to a regression in their social skills

N Rainey

11/10/2023 08:48:01 am

I agree I feel a lot of this generation lack face to face and that’s why this generation don’t get along as well

C.lott 2A

11/10/2023 09:28:43 am

I agree, because teen rely on the internet so much they cant see the real world in there own eyes. Teens also lack the confidence to communicate with people cause they relate to technology so much. This generation lack many things but mainly the ability to use their mind and be able to do hands on things

Williams J 1A

11/10/2023 09:07:24 am

I agree because most teens think they need their phones for any and everything

J. RockwellI 3a

11/10/2023 10:19:26 am

this is straight facts cant put it any better

E Martinez 1A

11/10/2023 08:35:46 am

I think its bad because teens don't know how to think properly or learn anything because there all worried about there phones

N Rainey

11/10/2023 08:59:18 am

I agree it’s affected the learning and comprehension of kids these days

J. RockwellI 3a

11/10/2023 10:18:51 am

just speaking straight facts couldn't put it any better

N Rainey 1A

11/10/2023 08:46:45 am

I think technology have been good and bad to teenagers in this society and I say bad because of trends and bad habits teens see on the internet but good because of the factual and real world things on there

B Penson 7B

11/10/2023 09:05:40 am

I also agree that trends are bad habits that we get from technology

Williams J 1A

11/10/2023 09:06:23 am

I agree because some teens have problems sitting there phone done for a second.

C.lott 2A

11/10/2023 09:17:04 am

I agree, because technology have great things within the world to help for real life examples. Also, the internet could be bad and create bad situations for people. Teens dont realize how important it is to not do most things on the internet that could cuase problems.

A, Martinez 6B

11/10/2023 11:09:26 am

I completly agree that technology has been good and bad it truly is a rollercoaster.

C, Ramirez 3A

11/10/2023 05:39:12 pm

Definitely, technology has helped us see many things that are going on with the world and they keep us informed about those things, but at the same time I understand that some of us have bad habits with our phones.

K Starr 1A

11/10/2023 08:50:55 am

I believe that technology has had a negative impact on us teens because that is all that we are worried about. We are always worried about what soemone is posting or what we should post. We aren't worried about school like we should be.

A, Martinez 6B

11/10/2023 11:06:52 am

I agree that Technology has harmed teens greatly, but it also has massive benifits that help teen on a daily.

E maso3a

11/10/2023 12:24:17 pm

Exactly. It is so hard to now have a conversation with someone without them having to grab their phone or check it in general.

Diaz Z 1A

11/10/2023 03:54:52 pm

I agree so many teens cant even start a real conversation with people or even go up to them without getting nervouse or scared.

Alynette Delgado 6B

11/10/2023 12:31:32 pm

I also agree with these teenagers this day are always in social media and worrying about that instead of worrying about what is in front of them.

B Penson 7B

11/10/2023 09:03:47 am

I think technology has had mixed affects on society and teens because the attachment everyone has to their technology

S. Ross 4A

11/10/2023 12:25:19 pm

I completely agree with you everyone acts like they just can't
live without their phone .

Williams J 1A

11/10/2023 09:05:39 am

I would say most teens get to connected to the technology and I think it’s a bad and good thing because some people actually need them for work, school, or other things that’s important to them.

D Lopez 3a

11/10/2023 10:24:46 am

I agree, it can be bad and good when it comes teens that use technology.

M Roberson 8B

11/10/2023 11:58:13 pm

I agree with what you said. There can be a lot of pros to technology.

C.lott 2A

11/10/2023 09:12:11 am

I think its good and bad for teens. The technology is used for the wrong things when it comes to teens. However, teens also use technology to help them as well.

D Lopez3a

11/10/2023 10:22:54 am

I agree because teens use technology for when they need help with something.

E maso3a

11/10/2023 12:23:39 pm

I agree. Phones have of course a positive to using one, but we tend to mainly use it for entertainment and not as many business calls as we tend to say.

L Speed 1A

11/10/2023 02:14:25 pm

I agree it's bad for teens to have technology but good at the same time

J. RockwellI 3a

11/10/2023 10:17:51 am

i think that the phones and TV's and video games are really problems because how come a person can make more then a person who makes roads just by siting at home and making a shit tone of money by just playing games and people watch like huh.

D Lopez 3a

11/10/2023 10:20:40 am

Technology can have its flaws but its good and bad at the same time.It has impacted teens a lot because they use their phones 24/7. Technology has took over the society with it being everywhere.

Alynette Delgado 6B

11/10/2023 12:29:57 pm

I agree because is similar to what I was talking.

A, Martinez 6B

11/10/2023 11:00:05 am

Technology has greatly affected teens across the world sometimes it's a good thing because it helps save lives and helps teens find useful resources across the world. Although it has also harmed the minds of thousands by implimenting body image or insecurity the toxicity of the internet is like a virus and it spreads fast.

M Contreras 6B

11/10/2023 11:56:22 pm

Yes, I really agree with those topics. I say this because technology has been great for resources. Yet it also creates bad insecurity due to unrealistic standards.

J. Lira 7B

11/10/2023 11:16:13 am

Technology has impacted the lives of teens by making us more dependent on technology. Although this may seem like a good thing; it's actually the contrary because we have now become one with technology similar to a parasite. You eventually become distant from society that we don't realize what's truly happening in our surroundings.

Akyah Bethany 7b

11/10/2023 12:37:49 pm

I agree that it isn't a positive for teens to be dependent on technology because it distances them from reality.

E. Dontae 8B

11/10/2023 10:54:12 pm

I agree with this claim as a very true and leading example of this are teenagers getting into wrecks because they are too busy looking at their phones. There are stats and studies about this as shown in this article! https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/811611-youngdriversreport_highestlevel_phoneinvolvement.pdf

Z.Woods 6B

11/10/2023 11:28:26 pm

I somewhat agree with this statement, although we are getting more dependent on technology it’s informing us on what is going on in the world .

E maso 3a

11/10/2023 12:22:02 pm

Phones are a major problem for most teenagers. If we were to take a survey about how many of us are truthfully glued to our phones, i could assure more than 50% would agree, and even now it has become a typical problem in school for most teachers. It even became easy to be rich by developers apps out there which can assist and give a detailed walk through of an application. Phones have taken over us and it has now became a major issue.

James Leslie 1A

11/10/2023 03:52:26 pm

I agree not just phones but technology in general has taken over its in every body's house and face.The teachers are having a problem with phones to beause students cant go moe than 10 minutes with out looking at a text or scrolling threw social media. Its eating or brains as we know it even this computer that im on its all cryupted

S. Ross 4A

11/10/2023 12:23:39 pm

I think the main consequence of technology is most teens have no real life skills or even want real jobs because they see their favorite streamer or someone that has and easy life and they think that instead of school they could just be like them and that's the problem they would rather be on tiktok rather than learn from an article or a book where you can learn the exact same thing and obtain more information than a 1 min tiktok could ever show you.

dmason 1A

11/10/2023 03:52:42 pm

i agree

A,Martinez 7B

11/10/2023 10:39:13 pm

I agree, we as a generation must learn to look for the good things in life that don't include a screen.

M. Evbuomwan 8b

11/10/2023 11:13:58 pm

Yes I agree technology definitely enables the youth from learning real social or life skill that could in the future benefit them

Alynette Delgado 6B

11/10/2023 12:29:15 pm

Technology is becoming part of our lives more and more each day. It may be in a negative way or positive. However with teenagers I believe is more in the negative way since society is just a big ball of negativity.

Akyah Bethany 7b

11/10/2023 12:39:26 pm

I agree that technology can be negative or positive influence because they're a mix of beneficial and negative things that come with technology.

L Speed 1A

11/10/2023 02:11:22 pm

I agree with the negative some teens got to have a phone in their face.

dmason 1A

11/10/2023 03:53:27 pm

i agree

James Leslie 1A

11/10/2023 03:50:14 pm

I agree that technology is having a moajor negative impact on scociety all you see is people posting negitve things and tlking about eachother instead of lifting everyone up to become better human beings and work toegther

Diaz Z 1A

11/10/2023 03:54:14 pm

I agree before you know it tech will be the main thing in our lives in a couple years. It can be negative but it depends on the person.

B jasso 6B

11/10/2023 10:29:54 pm

I agree with you, there's so much negativity on social media that we understand it all and end up being influenced by it, so yes it is more negative than positive

Akyah Bethany 7b

11/10/2023 12:36:18 pm

Technology had influenced teens positively and and negatively, but in my opinion more negatively. Teens are easily influenced since they are pre adults, so when introduced to everything that can be witnessed in technology it can be bad for them. Positively, technology has given teens the opportunity to have access to what's going on in the world. Technology can be informing.

M Johnson 2 1A

11/10/2023 04:45:12 pm

Since we have grown with technology, some of us have been on it since we hit the toddler age. Now that technology is still evolving it's causing a negative toll on us teens. We see things that are going on outside of the US and some of us try to contribute to it.

L Speed 1A

11/10/2023 02:09:27 pm

Technology can be a problem for teens sometimes it can help us out with things that we need.

D Davis 6B

11/10/2023 02:27:45 pm

I think technology has affected teens negatively. Everyone has become too reliant on their devices and things online damage people's self-esteem.

James Leslie 1A

11/10/2023 03:48:38 pm

TEchnology has influnced tens by making everyhtng visbale and making everything have easy access to see everything. Teens cant jst go outisde on bikes and ust play ad talk with out having there phine in their face 24/7 everybody is caught up in whats the new trend or whats the drama

dmason 1A

11/10/2023 03:52:16 pm

its all bad because i can bhet that some of the people lose track of time in be forgetting that they have home work that they need to be doing

Diaz Z 1A

11/10/2023 03:53:14 pm

The consequences of technology on teens and society are both good and bad, and it all depends on how they are used for example tech could be bad because teens can use tech as a way to cyberbully one a nother and it sets up fake standers for our young eyes. And a good example would be teens have a good way of having communication with familly and friends or tech can also help you find answers so honestyly its half good and half bad it just depends how you use it and how often.

Cruz D 3A

11/10/2023 05:04:56 pm

I feel like your statement is true and no one really thinks about it that way. Technology is good for people who want to or need to communicate with someone that is not with them at that time. It’s good for reminders or just good conversation.

D Cruz 3A

11/10/2023 04:01:12 pm

Technology has affected the human society because everyone has certain expectations and are ungrateful if those expectations technology presents isn’t given. This isn’t good for teens specifically because we are still young and learning, so having expectations that’s fairly unreasonable when this young doesn’t make any sense and can be toxic for our mind.

M Johnson 2 1A

11/10/2023 04:42:28 pm

Technology can be good or bad depending on how you use it. If you use it to keep in contact with others or look at things that you love. It could be bad due to the kind of people on it and you can't take back anything your have posted, said, or done on the internet.

B jasso 6B

11/10/2023 10:25:12 pm

I agree with you and to add to it, it's also bad because when you're out with friends and family those should be times that you should enjoy and be with one another, but it feels like the more tech we have the worse it gets because we're all on it and don't really pay attention to anything anymore.

A,Martinez 7B

11/10/2023 10:37:29 pm

I agree, I think that if we learn to use it for the right reasons we can strive as a successful society.

Yes. A good example of this is Twitter. There are a lot of horrible things and people out there. Not only that, everything you post on there is trackable even if you delete it.

This generation has been affected by technology when it comes to being aware of social issues. As a young generation, we are able to stay connected and communicate with one another and see the way "adults" have been acting and done very little to assist those in need. Technology allows us to see the tragedies that are happening around the world and how the government is doing very little to assist those in need. Our generation is one of the most informed generations there has ever been because of technology and how easy it is to access information over the internet. We are able to see the mistreatment of people all over the world as well as being informed of our government, our politicians, and what they stand for. While some criticize us for our age or our constant use of technology, it is that same technology that allows us to rally against discrimination, mistreatment, and abuse of power that is happening at a constant rate in this country and others.

Technology has affected teenagers by a lot. There are good reasons but then there are a majority of bad reasons. I think technology has affected teenagers more in a bad way than good. Us teens cannot survive with out our phones or any type of technology. I mean we can it’s just people are so obnoxious and ignorant of what is around you and who you speak to. Basically addicted to our phones.

It has affected society in several ways, one of which is that it has made many individuals less capable of critical thought. Some people get so accustomed to searching for answers online that they get disinterested in taking initiative. Technology has several benefits, two of which are that it keeps us informed and connected with one another.

great point with the ¨made individuals less capable of critical thought¨ because that´s 100% true now a-days people dont wanna think anymore for their problems their using technology to solve it for them, which i feel like waste less because if we get all of our technology took away today some people would´t know how to survive cause they don´t have that critical thinking

technology has affected everyone in some type of way, there's been so many times where people are on their phones a lot and dont really focus on the real world, and try to create amazing moments with those around them. But then there's the good side, where it cam help you look up answers tp a problem you need help with. But for the most part it's affected society for the worst and it's not really a good thing at all.

Like all things technology has its pros and cons. For teens it's safe to say it's more harmful than beneficial, because teens use technology for the wrong reasons. We would rather use it for social media than to help us with important tasks. As far as using technology as a society we could get better at using it more to accomplish things in life. We can use technology for entertainment every now and then but we must learn when enough is enough.

Technology is both hurting and benefiting teens. It all depends on who and how they are using it.There are very bad influences on there that has definitely put a toll on this generation, and there are good influences as well. However, it seems to be leading more towards the bad side as society begins to rely more on the internet and internet feelings while slowly losing their original morals.

While technology makes life so much more easier, like every thing it has its disadvantages, from becoming an addiction to majority of its users,to shorting their attention span,and causing more exposure to dangerous people and misinformation

true! most teens struggle with that in today´s time, I like to call it screen addiction. crazy part is this technology is rubbing off on the younger generation already, causes lack of school work and no longer active with the world or their peers

I think social media has become too much of an addition, i find myself scrolling when i should be doing other important things and use tik tok as a way to avoid a bunch of things. It is terrible but hard to break the habit

The impact of technology on teens and society is a complex and multi-faceted issue, and it is not necessarily all good or all bad. Technology has opened up new avenues for creativity, entrepreneurship, and collaboration. Teens can create and share their content, leading to potential career options or artistic pursuits.

Technology has definitely had/ still has a big impact on teens and society. It´s not all good or all bad, but it´s a mix of both On the positive side, technology has made it easier to connect with others, access information, and explore new ideas. However, it can also lead to issues like cyberbullying, addiction, and privacy concerns. It´s important to find a balance and use technology responsibly.

Technology can be negative and positive for teens. It can be dangerous for them due to how naive they are. However it could also be good due to giving them a better education.

The consequences of technology has impacted some teens.I think a lot of the times it can be over consumption. Technology can benefit people depending on the way that they use it.

I think it has impacted in both good and bad ways. Bad being that teens believe everything they see and go talk about it to 10 different people. Then the good is being informed of actual things that happen.

Being informed is a perk to social media but sometimes social media makes things seem worse or not even true at all

The impact social media has on teens has its good side and bad side. We use social media to share our lives and that wouldn't hurt anyone execpt when we start to compare ourselves to the people online. Their lives and their bodies. What was once for sharing for fun is now bragging and comparing.

The impact is both good and bad, teens have a had a increase in mental health issues over the past few years. But there has been good outcomes with teens making money in many different ways using social media.

I agree with you on the bad part, because thee is too many girls showing off there body's, and then getting mad at the outcome with the feedback .
