So much of dependency on mobile phones these days

Today every individual have their own mobile phone. Some people like me also have more than one phone. One official and one personal. It is self-evident that people find it hard to live without mobile phones. It has now become a part of our life which we cannot be without. You can call this a huge dependency or in other words people call this a white screen addiction too. I have to be very thankful that I at least did not have this technology during my childhood and that's one of the strongest reasons why my childhood was awesome. Today when I get a chance to meet some of my old friends, they keep saying that we have to plan and do some gaming but it never happens. The main reason is because we have too much dependency on mobile phones.

There is no chance to meet anyone physically because we make a lot of calls to people and talk to them frequently. Some people don't even talk and they get all the updates they need from mobile phones and socializing is becoming a fake thing these days. Humans are social beings by nature and technology like mobile phones when used in the wrong sense brings isolation and takes away the socializing nature of human beings. I have seen houses where each house member will be busy in their own rooms with their own devices. There is no point in living in the same house if this is the case.

Kids cannot be without mobile phones

The newest generation is the most affected ones with this technology. The older generation knows that this technology is important and they all grew up without this technology and they know how to balance out both this technology and at the same time live with this technology too. The newer generation feels very much lost if they don't have mobile phones. The kids are refusing to eat if they are not given YouTube while eating. The parents have also encouraged them with this from childhood and today it is becoming a big challenge.

Harmful to health

Mobile phone is not only harmful to physical health but they are also harmful to mental health. People who are addicted so much to white screens find it hard to distract themselves from other physical activities. Even if they force themselves towards other activities, they cannot be without taking a look at their mobile phones. Doctors say that it is not good for the eyes to look at mobile phones during the night time with low light and as soon as you wake up from your bed.

I'm able to see the mental effects on kids. I have seen my cousin's kid getting angry and uncontrollable when their mobile phone is taken away from his hand. He either wants to play a game on it or watch some videos on YouTube. This has been a practice from childhood and today it is hard for them to let the habit go. We cannot completely blame the kids alone. These days parents don't have enough time to spend with their kids and distract them from physical activities. When they give their mobile phones to the kids, they can focus on other tasks they might have and they don't have any trouble from their kids.

I have to admit that not just kids but adults are also addicted to this and I personally see how much dependent I'm on mobile phones. I cannot remember how I used to wander in the streets during my college days without having a mobile phone in hand and without getting lost. This technology is definitely good but we should know how to use that wisely.
