The digital divide could end up leaving some of us jobless. We need to be able to use all of the technology we have access to so we can succeed.

Like I said before about computers, not only do business people use them, but parents and teens, and maybe some younger children. Teens get in chat rooms all the time. Some probably don’t even know what they are getting into. In chat rooms people can be pushed to do something or even be bullied. Chat rooms and the use of text messaging can be harmful.
