We Are To Blame For Parents's Death Analysis

Decent Essays
I believe that the parents are to blame for their deaths because they had too much technology in their house, causing their kids to become spoiled.

Live sort of a carefree one-for-all existence."Said George. "That sounds dreadful!" argued Peter. “Would I have to tie my own shoes instead of letting the shoe tier do it?" This depicted my claim since they even have the technology for possessions related to tying their shoes, and Peter gets mad for having to do that simple task.

    Eliana Dockterman is a published writer for Time Inc. whose almost indifferent tone is used throughout the essay in the hopes of settling the argument over technology's role in children's lives and development. This article comes at a time where parents are fearful of technology's role and influence on their children, and Dockterman clearly wants to encourage parents to monitor the use of technology, but not eliminate it.

The usage of logistics, statistics, and credible sources such as authors, doctors, and principles, not only increases Dockterman's credibility, but offers a counter argument. The article starts of with various counter arguments and allusions to different schools and "treatments" to achieve a "digital detox" in children's lives such as the "Capio Nightingale Hospital in the UK... paying as much as $24,000..."…

Most of this people are African Americans, Women, and Immigrants.…
