Texting has become a big part of
many people’s lives. It can benefit many but it can also be a problem to
others. While many use it to quickly communicate with others, others use it to procrastinate.
People tend to text and forget that they have many other things to do. People
seem to get really entertained, especially during class when they are bored.
Texting during class can be very distracting, not only for the person texting
but for the people around them. Cell phones make noise when they vibrate and
that can distract other students. Texting can also be a distraction while
driving. Texting and driving is just as bad and dangerous as drinking and
driving. People should take it more seriously and put their phone down while they
drive. The text can wait, it is not going to go anywhere. Texting is not always
a bad thing. Especially when a person’s trying to communicate with someone else
and they can’t talk on the phone. Texting can be a quick way to let someone
else something within a second. Texting is changing the way we communicate with
others. It might be for the better but it also has many problems that can be
fixed. It is a personal decision to text and drive or to get off task when you
have many other things to do.
I agree with you texting is changing by the way we communicate.. and it also affects relationships
ReplyDeletetake the pledge dont text and drive.
ReplyDeleteIt is true that many use it to procastinate, because there has been times where I need to be doing something and instead of doing it right away I check my phone instead, it is a bad habit, and it is a problem when it affects your life.
ReplyDeleteI am very guilty of texting in class and sometimes I don't even pay attention to the lecture which is really bad.
ReplyDeleteyes its true we have other things to do but we decide to text instead.
ReplyDeleteI like how you state it is a personal decision to text and drive. You can make the decision not to. If decide to text and drive the cops will not give you a choice of jail or not. I enjoyed the read. I also like the end of the artical where you state if your not sure this new form of communication is good or bad.
ReplyDeleteyes i agree with everything, it's just as dangerous as drinking and driving
ReplyDeleteI got into a fender bender when i heard text ringtone go off because i took my eyes off the road for a second.
ReplyDeletetexting and driving can really be dangerous. I have almost got into car crashes sometimes.
