  2. The use of technology is really improving and I agree that technology does have benefits to human life. However I am not sure if technology should be exposed to kids at such a young age. I feel that they should experience other things such as blocks, coloring and basic child learning skills. Although technology really is advancing throughout the years, we should not really rely on it.

  3. I believe that technology influences a child's life in good and bad ways. A child should be able to use technology in a safe way where they can be able to learn and gain basic skills they will need later in life.
