Texting can threaten personal safety‚ distract people‚ and encourage rudeness. Even though there are many benefits of texting‚ there can also be many negative consequences‚ some of them can be very harmful as well.

    Susan Lewellen Are Americans too dependent on technology? Do you think Americans are too dependent on technology? Americans have become so reliant on technology in the 21st century that a vast majority of us probably wouldn’t know what to do if one day all the electronics just shut down.
