The boy in this cartoon found a solution to his problem. He knows that if there is any chance he will have a social life in the future, he needs to show evidence he can talk to individuals of the opposite gender. When I drew this, the only thing that came to mind about “social distancing,” would have been the plight of poor, nerdy boys.
Technology can help us if we are smart about it.
- It can help us keep connected as we continue to practice social distancing
- It can help us get work done at home
- It can keep kids going to school even as the schools are closed
But technology can also cause problems.
- It can distract us from work or school
- It can fill us with anxiety when we hear the same doomsday scenario over and over
- It can keep us from disconnecting and make us feel like we have to be always on
How have you used technology wisely? What are some tips for those who may struggle with using it wisely?
