All technologies can have a negative impact. Like for example a car, if we are not wise in driving it we can endanger ourselves and others. Another example is a smartphone, sometimes we spend time playing a smartphone all day without doing anything useful. Negative impacts always arise if we do not use technology wisely.

Exactly. It is not problem in technology, but how we use it.  Even cars are bad if we only drive around and not taking walk instead.

You're right. Everything that's not done correctly can and will have negative effects. Though if you look at it, it has more positive effects with it's advancement but it's almost automatic that with these positive effects, some things will be taken advantage of if done in excess. That's why I think there should be people to monitor technology and it's use or we ourselves should know how to properly use it

Technology can have positive and negative points. The positives can be to make life easier for people like cars, computers, social networks .... But technology can have negative points like armaments technology, which destroys the world and pushes it to the war.
There are also false negatives: as for cars; Is an accident the fault of the creator of cars? No.
Children too ... Parents have only to control what they do, there are many ways to monitor them and set them hours.

We should probably define what the semantics of "good" and "bad" are here. I think the more important debate here is between "order" and "chaos." To me, it seems that technology is facilitating the creation of order in our universe. Technology does have the side effect of increasingly taking us out of the "real world" though. There will soon come a point at which the real world will become obsolete.

Neo-Luddism or New Luddism is a philosophy opposing many forms of modern technology. The word Luddite is generally used as a derogatory term applied to people showing technophobic leanings. The name is based on the historical legacy of the British Luddites, who were active between 1811 and 1816.

Neo-Luddism is a leaderless movement of non-affiliated groups who resist modern technologies and dictate a return of some or all technologies to a more primitive level. Neo-Luddites are characterized by one or more of the following practices: passively abandoning the use of technology, harming those who produce technology, advocating simple living, or sabotaging technology. The modern Neo-Luddite movement has connections with the anti-globalization movement, anarcho-primitivism, radical environmentalism, and Deep Ecology.

Neo-Luddism is based on the concern of the technological impact on individuals, their communities, and/or the environment, Neo-Luddism stipulates the use of the precautionary principle for all new technologies, insisting that technologies be proven safe before adoption, due to the unknown effects that new technologies might inspire.

My answer for this is it depends. How you use technology is the main criteria if it going to be negative or positive. Technology is powerful, it could help humankind or it could create a lot of problems.

Yes I agree with you.  It usually depends on the user the people on how he or she used it.  It is created and always there to improve the light of everyone of us.  It is up to you how you will use it.  It can be for the good or for the bad.  Just do not let th3 technology used you instead use technology.

In resent time, advancement in technology has had a serious negative effects on our children as compared to the positive impact. Some of the negative effects on our children are, leaning bad habits from the movie they watch maybe through their cellphone or computer, spending much time on their computers playing games instead of them to be studying their books. To me , if the children are not properly monitored they  will end up leaning the negative impact as compared to the positive impacts of the advancement in technology.

Negative effects of technology includes making people unhealthy and people unfit. Because machines and computers are manpower jobs are lessen thats its making people unhealthy with lack physical activities.
Adults are very good at dealing with the negative impact of high technology, but the fact is that you need to watch children first. The fact is that even when digital devices, smartphones and computers became more accessible, our children began to spend a lot of time in them and this affects their health. Therefore, it seems to me that in this respect there is a negative impact of high technology.

That is why parents really need to watch their children on the time spent on their gadgets because the influence that it can get to your children is different. As for me, I set a limit on how many hours my kids spent with their tablets, ipad and now since its the school days already they are limited to used in specially Monday-Friday. I also encourage them to be involved more in sports to develop their mind and body. So less time in tech gadgets but more into sports activity.
Parental restrictions have never yielded good results. You even remember yourself as a child. How much did you listen to your parents when they forbade you?

Technology makes us less industrious and become lazy. We  expect technology  to do everything for us, when you walk outside your house every person around you doesnt care about anything just their phone. What I hate the most is posting every single thing they do on social media, what they eat, where are they, what they do even after taking a bath, take a picture after waking up not just special event that happens to them but every single thing about them they post it in social media, they even say they can't live without their cellphones and other gadgets which is nonsense.

,Nowadays as I can see in our current society, most people are being swallowed by technology in different terms. People also are way to linient to whats new or up to date, they want to adapt whats the current happenings or new.

Now majority of them are just staring at their iPads.



Its better for the children to play with their IPads rather than they play outside with the super hot weather that can cause heat strokes. I remember there are already many students who join the athletic meets died due to heat. Pollution is a major factor and the climate changing why the children are always looking on their ipads.

But as a parent it is our duty to keep everything in balance, we must give time to our children to use the Ipads and a time to read books, watch television, chatting with the family, and other activities. It is not the fault of the children why they are focused on Ipads it just means that the parents are so busy that they give their children Ipads do they will not disturb them.

So if we dont want children to keep staring on Ipads let us not buy one and spend quality time with our children.
Yes! Children should not be exposed to computers or phones. A lot of parents feed their children, too. Not to mention minors for curious looking at unhealthy websites that lead to corruption. Parents should manage their children more. Use technology properly.

The fact is that to date High Technologies give us a very big advantage in life and thus, looking back and paying much attention to the trend of life, all that we have makes life easier for us. Everything that we consider as the negative influence of high technologies on a person or humanity as a whole, the little things of life.

Technology has a positive and negative side, the positive now children can use objects such as iPad and no less knowledge about technology and can search for lessons on the internet, the negative side is that children have started playing together, more often play iPad and lack of Communication, other than that negative children can access the internet via the iPad so it can know things that have not d d knowing it at an early age.

Technology's positive and negative effects are all dependent on the people who uses it, a good hearted person will use the internet to research and create a light bulb whiles a evil minded person will make a bomb, it all depends on the user not technology itself.
