My relationship with technology is becoming more and more dependable. Growing up I always had a computer in the house, always had tv with cable, and then once in middle school had my first cell phone. I believe that technology is good but to a certain extent. To much technology is not good in my eyes. I feel like now a days kids are drawn to much into technology and not enough into really enjoying their childhood. For example my little cousin was in like third grade when she got her first cell phone. I personally think that is a little too young.
I believe that I am a digital native because I was brought up with technology but did not let it ruin my childhood. I am now a lot more dependeable on technology and feel like is beneficial in today's society. As a youth worker I feel like it is very important to know technology because that is the kids future. Youth workers need to know how to use technology to work with kids so that it will benfit them and their learning. Technology can not only be used for teaching but it can also be used to connect with our youth.
