Using Technology To Communicate

I believe that we do rely too much on technology, but technology has many valueble sources that we didn't have before. We use technology all the time, especially for communication. That's because it's a lot easier and faster to call someone, or text someone, than sending them a letter in the mail. You would probably agree with me when I say "Technology is an important part of my life, I use it everyday." Well, a lot of people feel that, by using technology as much as we do, students don't have the writing skills that they would have. I agree with this because we text and call so much, that we don't have all the knowledge it takes for writing a letter. Not saying that we don't know how to write a letter, just saying that if something happened and we weren't able to text or call someone (or use any other source of technology to communicate with them) we would have no choice but to write them a letter. How would teens nowadays know how to write and send letters when they are used to texting or calling?
