Recently, technology has negative or positive effect which can change people relationship
with many ways. Although online communication comes with easy access, I believe it is affecting
folk's relationships negatively in spite of strengthening the bonds of the community. This is essay
will represent what ways has technology to affected people interaction although that is positive
effect of negative effect. The essay begin with what ways has technology give effect in relationship
and next, will discuss about is the way has become a positive or negative in development.
However, when it comes to communicating in the bygone era, the human population had to send
letters through the pos, which requires a month for the reply back to come, therefore making
communication time consuming and less frequent. This is not the case with new technology.
Before the existence of technology, the relationship between people can be categorized as limited,
especially in terms of communication. For example, people who lived before technology had to
meet if they wanted to interact or communicate. Many people have difficulty communicating with
relatives or friends who are far away. In addition to communication, technology also affects the
ease of seeking knowledge, when shopping or buying food. Therefore, almost anything can be
done easily. With the existence of technology, it certainly makes many changes to a person's
lifestyle and there are negative and positive impacts. Currently the use of technology is being used
in various fields, and this has many positive impacts such as making it easier to communicate even
though abroad which makes communication unlimited, shopping online is more practical without
leaving the house. In addition to the positive impact, there are also negative impacts from
technology, such as many people who always use their gadgets when interacting with people
around them, which makes relationships between humans. In conclusion, there are many effects
of technology for life that can change people and their lifestyles, especially in terms of
communication. In this life, one must have a balanced lifestyle, that is, not only focus on living in
a gadget, but also continue to live life in the surrounding environment. Notwithstanding this, online
communication instead of making bonds robust is actually degrading the bond quality. To explain,
because of the over-availability of the population over phones, they spend almost half of their day
talking to their friends, colleagues, and clients. As a result, family time suffers as the working elite
is often seen on calls even after working hours. This lack of attention given by the husband was
cited as one of the reasons for the divorce by several females in the US. Hence, this essay argues
that telecommunication is actually drifting the ways of people apart.
