Computer In Everyday Life (Yr 7)

Computer is good for everyday life. However, there are setbacks on this. 

Those who are Abusive - that is they use the computer in an offensive or irritating manner. Abusively, some use computers at the wrong time and some use it to commit various crimes. 

Those who are addicts - can't stay away from computer devices because they spend abnormal time on movies, social media (Facebook, WhatsApp, YouTube, Instagram, etc) and games.

Those who are lazy - these category of persons have deliberately replaced their brains, hands, legs, eyes and every active part of their bodies with the computer. Funny though, how some will rather depend on and convey wrong information without doing concrete research and study before sharing information. Computer in our everyday life will be jeopardy if it totally takes the place of the BRAIN (reasoning) and the BOOK (reading).
