Cell Phone Use

Cell phone use is another form of technology that has negative effects on society. Like social networking, texting causes users to over abbreviate their words.  Many people also loose their basic grammer skills because they are constantly using poor grammar in their text messages. When people spend too much time using texting as a form of communication as opposed to talking face-to-face, they run the risk of losing some of the basic social skills required to have an actual conversation.

The biggest concern in today's society dealing with cell phone use is texting while driving.  This action has resulted in many car accidents and deaths that could've been avoided.  Many states are implementing laws against texting while driving, although this doesn't stop the majority of teenagers.  If more people realized the effects this is having on society, they might think twice before answering a text message while driving.
