Digital Dangers
Children in 2018 are almost born with a tablet in their hands. There are benefits from this but there are also negatives. One of the postive outcomes of this is that our children are highly advanced in technology , children know how to acess anything and everything online without their parents help. The negative side of this is that our children can be exposed to material that is not suiteble for their age. Another problem that can arise from this technology loving era is that our children are becoming very comftirble in the since that they no longer need to use a dictinary to find a defenition or know how to correctly spells words because "Spell check " does it for them. Technology should always be supervised until proven that child is aware of the correct behaviour needed to have in the internt world, and should always be put at balance with physical books and activities that will further develop out kids.

The modern-day Internet has become too public. For instance, most people are on social media where the sites keep track of too much of your personal information. Facebook, for example, shows your friends when you log on to the site and how long you stay logged off. Excess of personal data hurts people in the sense that it can lead to jealousy and destroy relationships. Lastly, other things such as porn are free and easily accessible to society. We live in a society with age limits for a beer, yet many kids in this generation who tend to be more technologically savvy can easily access things they shouldn't be privy to seeing.
