Televisions, stereos, telephones, and puters have changed the way we spend our time and what we know about the world. Some of the changes brought about by these material possessions have improved our way of life, but others have made it worse. Our young teenagers turn on the television, play the stereo, play games on the puter, talk on the telephone, and eat all the same time. This drives me right up the wall to instant insanity(精神失常).
However, teens of today place too great an importance on material property. They spend an average of several hours a day watching television, listening to stereos, playing on the puter, playing video games, and talking on the telephone. Families no longer watch television together and there is great lack of munication. Materialism is evident when an otherwise intelligent teenager drives their parents crazy, and into debt, when misusing munication equipment. Teens judge and admire other teens for what they own and have, rather than for what they are or what they can do. They no longer care about values, like honesty, integrity(正直), freedom, talent, quality and other values and morals.
However, good or bad, munication devices are here to stay. It is up to us, as parents, to stop our beloved teenagers from misusing and abusing our munication equipment and devices. We need to avoid the problems they present and to make the most of their opportunities they possess and hold for us all.
