No Title Given

By Sofia

Cell phones are being used so much that some research says that people are forgetting how to talk face to face? True or False? There’s a 50/50 chance that it’s true but there also a 50/50 chance that it’s false. So the question is what do I think.

I think that people these days use there phones a lot, they use it for calling, texting, Facebook, ETC. Even my grandma uses her phone a lot for an older person. I’m not saying that I don’t use my phone but I don’t use my phone as much as my mom does, every time I see her she has her phone I her hands and she’s texting away the way teenagers would. She even has her phone in her hands when she is sleeping. Its like she would die if she didn’t have a phone, I think the only time she doesn’t have her phone is when she is in the shower and when she’s at work.  

But anyways, I do think that the cell phones these days are affecting they way people talk to each other. The only reason why I believe that is because I’ve seen it. I’ve seen it in my own friends. In there messages to other people they can’t stop talking or should I say typing. But in person it’s like they have never met before. Like what is that, you where just texting that person and you couldn’t put down your phone down and now you can’t even talk to him in person? 

The other reason I believe the cell phones are effecting how people talk to other people is because it’s happened to me as well. For example ill be texting my dad just fine like we used to talk when I was younger and didn’t have a phone. Then when I see him the next day we barley speak one word to each other, for the first day. But the next days we talk more and more until it’s like the old times. I guess I’ve done it to some friends to. I think if cell phones where gone for at least a month or two people would start talking better to other people in person.

Those are some of the reasons why I think that cell phone these days are effecting how people talk to others. I could probably think of some more reasons why I think that but for right now those are the ones I have come up with.
