It is addictive? ...I think it all comes to balance. It is addictive? Yes, it can become, if you allow it to. <BR/>But honestly, I think there are many other reasons for the lack of communicaton between people and especially parents - children today. I've seen (sadly) families who never had dinners together or they are too busy for the most desired "I love you s", but it has nothing to do w/computers.<BR/>Do pepople and kids spend more time today in front of the computers? YES.<BR/>But this is where each family has to look into: WHY is this happening in their family? Really there are deeper issues that lead to that state of affair.<BR/>Have a very nice sunday and take care.

Before moving, I had what I felt to be a good balance between work and play, social and alone time, family and friends, etc. Now the time I spend interacting with '3D' people can be counted in minutes per day... I don't think it's healthy at all. So I can see the concerns, especially with children.Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10411929387450538903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298446310722807727.post-81091433872286367362009-02-28T07:12:00.000-08:002009-02-28T07:12:00.000-08:00Interesting article Pen.
