text and instant messages

So many people today, talk to each other over the computer or through text messaging. I think that this is crippling the next generation. Without face to face or even a phone conversation, we are unable to effectively communicate when we are put in those situations. Do you think our generations communication skills have decreases since the development of text messaging and instant messages?

I absolutley believe that the introduction of first instant messaging and email and as of latley text messaging on cell phones have some what crippled our generation. I see alot of people who cant talk to people and they take the easy way out and use these tools because it rules out the face to face spect of communication and you dont have to worry about peoples reactions.

I think that this new wave of comuncation is good, it makes people communicate more so it is easier to find things out, and keep track of each other
