Lack of Communication:

Teenagers don't realize the negative impact technology has on young adults. Instead of using their voice to express an opinion, emotion, or event- they are finding themselves side by side messaging one another. Their excuse is that they are young, but as this issue reoccurs they come to grips with the fact that a screen is controlling their life.

Often times their cellular device holds them back from meeting new people and enjoying new experiences. You could ask any adult that you ever encounter how often they would reject an option, person, or event because they were worried if the place would have WiFi or not. 9/10 times they would respond with "Never".

         
Its not always negative!
       

Other times social media can be used to bring people together rather than make others distant from one another!
