People talk about how family values have fallen by the wayside. It's all because of a thing called CULTURE. Families in North America are so busy with their careers, extra curricular activities, video games, texting on cell phones, etc.. Families need to come together and sit down at the table at least twice a week and talk about things that are happening in their lives and solutions. Society and its traditions, religions, rules and laws have families all messed up. There was a time when a table was all you had to sit at. Now we sit on sofas, loveseats, cushy chairs, all of which keeps us from sitting to a table together. We have video games, cell phones, televisions, radio (Pandora), etc. all of which keeps us from listening to one another. Remember how you could remember everyone's phone number by heart, loose your cell phone and experience DEMENTIA. Remember how in school you learned proper English, now with all the texting being done, people are loosing their ability to spell, speak properly, talk person to person, talk on the phone properly. All this is to say, TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES are not always beneficial to humans. Not being able to sit down to a table with family and friends is only the beginning of the host of dilemmas we will face in the future. We are creating all of things fancy gadgets to improve our way of life, but it will be a demise in the end.
