To say the least, the cell phones used in the 1990s, are not at all the same as the ones used today. In the same hand, neither are the people. Our society has changed because of cell phones. Having a phone used to be for businessmen and wealthy adults, which was a rare sight to see, in contrast, now you can’t walk into a building without seeing someone holding a cell phone. The debate about whether smart phones have helped us or hurt us is an ongoing argument. On one side, people are on their phones so much that they are disconnecting themselves to the people around them. And on the other side, some say it has brought old relationship to stronger level and helps others stay connected. Both statements can relate to many people, which is why it is a never-ending cycle. As the new generation of teenager are growing research has noticed that more and more children are weak when is comes to face-to-face interaction. This is mainly because all of their communication is through a cell phone, iPod, or computer. In 2009, conducted several surveys about teen communication and the results were quite remarkable. In September of 2009, an average of 54% of teens used texting and only 38% used calling. Unfortunately, knowing this, it can only get worse over time unless we limit ourselves to our phones. We need to not be so distant from the ones around
