Teens today are obsessed with technology, not just obsessed, they are hopelessly dependent on it. I feel like our generation is very hard to trust. Today we are given so many ways to get away with things and so many loop-holes are handed to us. Today I was watching the news and came across a breaking news story of a teen who fatally shot his 16-year-old classmate in the face, he then took a "selfie" with the teen's body and used the popular social media app SnapChat to send it to all his friends. Unfortunately this is the sad reality of our generation. Now I would be lying if I said that I don't use SnapChat and I would also be lying If I said I didn't love it. SnapChat is a great way to communicate with your friends and show them small glimpses of you're day, but it is also a very convenient way to cause trouble. The convenient thing about SnapChat is that after a 10-second time limit the picture you "snap" disappears forever, or does it? This teen was not so lucky, when he sent out this horrific snap to his peers. Thankfully a fellow teen decided to take it upon himself to show his mother who reported it to the police. This is the reality of the society we live. Do teens feel like they have the resources to get away with murder? Is this want the future holds for modern technology?
