The Youth of Today

It seems the younger you are, the more in tune you are with the many modern forms of communication available. The abbreviated language of three letter acronyms is the new English and street language is increasingly evident.

The mobile phone is considered a museum artefact if it is not the very latest and up to date and this surely costs a fortune. However, that's the kind of world in which we live and this technological revolution is being lead by the youth of this country.

It would seem that every youth of today is on his or her mobile using some cheap cell phone service in order to contact their friends. However, it is a great thing that they are able to communicate so easily and this does wonders for their people skills.

Some say the technological era has ruined the traditional skills but I would have to disagree entirely. We can now contact more people than ever before from all four corners of the globe and this improves our understanding of others. It is only natural for the older members of society to be cynical of this since it is new and relatively unfamiliar.

The youth of today is a well connected group of people who are moving society forward towards even the next century. A cynical view is only natural but really not necessary.
