Maybe lack of movement if you spend long periods in front of your pc. Not good for the body.

The blame should be put on the individual and not on the technology. I know a few guys who are addicted to their PCs, playing computer games. Their family members have tried every trick in the book to encourage them to shed this habit, but it was of little use.

That's true, don't blame the computer for having a bad health, discipline is needed on using or even creating technologies.

Well true. We should use computers and other gadgets created by this technology. It is us who is responsible for what happening to our health, or to anything. Discipline is needed. It is true, all these games and applications are truly addictive and I am one of them. But the important thing is you should know when to stop. Do not let technology uses us. We should use them.

Many of the negative effects of technology one of them is the technology of addiction to minors and adolescence.
The depletion of human resources in the industrial field for example is the application of industrial robot technology that causes the reduction of human labor

I think it would be machines taking over our livelihood, requiring a lengthy process of having to retool. I suppose the effect would like photography's to artists.

Another would be the increasing social ineptness of kids from being deprived of actual face to face interaction with their peers. There are so many nuances to communication that they must learn from a young age.

I don't see much negative effects of technology. But I see parents that let their children sit like for the whole day and all the do is to play or use social media with their gadget. Making these kids lazy and lacks with a good social life, you know what I mean. Just like hanging out with their friends and not talking with just the use of their gadgets.

But oh, there is something that pops out of my mind while writing this. It is the technology that ruin the works of the type of workers that uses their physical strength like some construction workers or people in the medical field that studied many years like medical technologists which will only do automation. And not using what they've learned. Even simple phlebotomy is now being automated.

Technology is not always a good thing.

One example is with the children.
In the old days, children used to play outside with their friends.
Now majority of them are just staring at their iPads.

Well sure thing is that technology helps us a lot but there are ups and downs when it comes to it. One bad thing about technology is it teaches us to be lazy. We almost depend on technology in our daily lives. We walk less, talk less with our family, we seldom read newspaper or books, we eat instant food a lot, etc.

A very strong influence today of high technologies on our children. Permissiveness is what is now available to them, spoiling not only physically but And most importantly, this is the moral side of this issue. Of course, every parent should regulate his child's access to such things, but we understand that not everyone can control this.

I don't see any negative consequences of technology development. May be pollution, but rather, it is due to the use of outdated technologies. New technology aimed at reducing harmful consequences for nature.

The worst thing is that the parents let their kids sit around on tech. I know it happened to me.

I went from being a soccer player during school years to sitting around on video games. Nobody told me to stop or get off really. It is unnatural to sit around on computers all day at your job then do so all day when you go home. It fries your brain because you are thinking too much instead of relaxing. Looking at a screen and reading and consuming entertainment too much will make you think and think and think, try going to bed after doing that and it is hard to fall alseep because your brain is not done tinking yet! You sit there and stare at the ceiling and hours later you finally fall alseep.

It is becauase your brain has to catergorize all of what you read and consumed before it is ready to go to sleep. Your brain is like a big library and computer, the computer gets backlogged with processing where to put the books or info.

Technology has evolved a lot and there are certain pros and cons. One of the consequences that I've noticed is that children nowadays are more attached to their gadgets than socializing to other people and making friends. Children tend to communicate well using their smartphones but they cannot engage themselves with conversation with real people. Health also suffers since the society don't engage to social activities and they like to chat and play games, browse on their computer more than exercising or doing some physical activities.

Kids these days are screwed uo because parents were fed up of taking care and just gave them an ipad or a phone so they shut up, tbh

Poor kids, that is.

Rich kids have more often than not smart parents and those take care how they children pass free time.

A brilliant student, Jonathan sailed through grade school. He completed his assignments easily and routinely earned As. Jonathan puzzled over why some of his classmates struggled, and his parents told him he had a special gift. In the seventh grade, however, Jonathan suddenly lost interest in school, refusing to do homework or study for tests. As a consequence, his grades plummeted. His parents tried to boost their son's confidence by assuring him that he was very smart. But their attempts failed to motivate Jonathan (who is a composite drawn from several children). Schoolwork, their son maintained, was boring and pointless.

Our society worships talent, and many people assume that possessing superior intelligence or ability—along with confidence in that ability—is a recipe for success. In fact, however, more than 35 years of scientific investigation suggests that an overemphasis on intellect or talent leaves people vulnerable to failure, fearful of challenges and unwilling to remedy their shortcomings.

Technology has a great help to our daily living today but it has also negative effects, children is one that is affected with this, children become more obese because they sit and play on laptops or ipads that affects their behavior than children before who used to play outside. Another negative thing of technology is that people are so active in social media which violent and scandals are easily viewed.

Children who sit and play on laptops become smarter while those who play outside become stupider, who is to say physical fitness is more desirable than intelligence? I would say thats a tradeoff not a negative effect.

As for people active in social media its probably less intense than physical bullying so I wouldn't necessarily call it a bad thing too.

technology has fucked us big time., it sure did help us too., but now people are active in social media instead of really socializing with friends and family and going out.

its not just social media i blame, but the technology has made us sit at one place in front of computer 8-12 hours a day so we can make a living.
sign of times.

This is their personal choice and not an effect of technology. Really not everyone uses social media, I sure don't.
It's important to see the difference between technology, which is computer, television, internet, and social media and streams of information that are being transmitted by these inventions. We have to learn to navigate this pieces of information and intake only the important bits, while ignoring the rest.
