Students Denied Social Media Go Through Withdrawal

This article has raised a few new opinions for me. I feel that in the time before there were cell phones, ipod´s, facebook, email, etc. kids going away to college had to leave their families and would only be able to contact them via landline phonecall or mail. I think that to say that kisd these days are suffering from an ´ïllness` is a false statement. I think that students today who are going off to college, are in  way, bringing home with them through their social networking and cell phones. So when students were asked to partake in this study, for only 50 minutes, I feel that it is pretty normal kids would rather have their phones and social networks. It is only fair that college students today, who have grown up with this technology, would only feel more comfortable with the technology. This is why I believe it cannot be called an illness.
