Nincompoops!
The article speaks of many pros and cons having to do with the advancement in technology and about products that are advertised nowadays. I would have to say that I agree with a lot of it. I mean it's true, we are so used to being handed things that sometimes the simplest thing turns out to be the hardest. Some things that appear hard are just so easy to do. I'd be lying if I told you I have never used google to look up some instructions as to how to construct or cook something. It's just so easy to look it up on the internet; and, in less than a second, it's all there! Not everyone is like this though. A lot of people do know how to make a lot and in my point of view it all just depends on how you were raised. My parents always enforced chores on me; however, not every parent does that so a lot of kids do not know how to wash dishes, mop, sweep, wash clothes or anything chore-related. Technology makes it fairly easy for us; a lot of people use dishwashers instead of actually washing the dishes by hand; and, in that way we are spoiled. We are spoiled with all of these new innovative things, it's crazy! I do not think that the new technology is bad. I just think that we should all know how to use technology and still know a little bit about the "old fashioned" ways to do something; so, our generation will not be known as the "nincompoops".
