Do you ever find yourself looking at your smartphone just a little too often? If so, you might be a tech addict! In this Simplified Speech episode, Andrew and Maura get to the bottom of addiction to technology. Join them as they talk all about their technological weaknesses!
Andrew:
Well, it’s funny that we’re talking about phones because the topic for today’s episode is technology, and specifically using technology a little too much, relying on technology too much, being an addict.
Maura:
It’s interesting because I think that it’s hard to say if a person is addicted or not. I think that many people would say that they’re not addicted, but they actually use technology—specifically their cell phones—a lot.
