Is it possible to stay away from smart phones?
I can remember, a cartoonist depiction of how the smart phones have been affecting our lives, had described the issue so well. The grandparents in the family were whispering to each other that they have lowered the range of Wi-Fi instrument to a table due to which the whole family had to sit around a table together to use their phones. It depicts the scenario of how smart phones have distanced us from each other.
We all have been spending our quality time with these hi tech gadgets instead of sitting and chit chatting to family and friends. These smart phones are now a day’s coming with so many features that our daily walks to chilling out with friends have taken a back stage these days. Isn’t it pulling off the families apart and destroying the social life of individuals with ill effects on one’s health.

Another important aspect of over use of smart phones is that we are missing on to give some quality time to our parents.
