I like this article and I can relate to the author quite a bit. Most people (majority aren't millennials) are all upset about how phones have taken over everyone's life. But that also makes me laugh because if you look at anyone above the millennial time period, they are most likely on their phone too. One thing I hate is we are always put down and stereotypes as the "hopeless" generation. I'm sorry but if you were a teenager and you had a phone, you would be on it too. I do think that our phones have been taken a little too far. But, in a couple years we will wish for this immature technology time back. Phones could be used in great ways suck as, documenting the best, most wanted memories like your babies first steps or, that one time you and your best friend met for the first time in 8 months. Also, to contact family from across the country, world, state or town. And, it can also be used to talk to long lost friends or significant others. And don't forget you can find some of the greatest people online. Some of the best friends you will ever meet that you can talk to your problems with, or share what happened in school that day. But, on the downside I do admit that phones can be bad because there are bad people out there that will try to steal from you, mentally or physically hurt you. But, that is true with anything and that is a risk that you will have to be willing to take.
