Introducing Something Implied or Assumed
1. One implication of Turkle's treatment of technology is that was have become to dependent upon cellular devices.
2. Although Turkle does not say so directly, she apparently assumes that children have become increasingly translucent to the reality versus virtual reality.
Introducing an Ongoing Debate
1. In discussions of networking, one controversial issue has been peoples craving for validation over violation.

1. Turkle acknowledges that multitasking has become more needed in our fast pacing world.
2. I agrees with Turkle that children's value for living things has decreased.
Introducing Quotations
1. Turkle states, "people become gratified by a certain public exposure; it is more validation than violation." (232).
2. According to Turkle, "The self that grows up with multitasking and rapid response measures success by calls made, e-mails answered and messages responded to." (229).
Disagreeing, With Reasons
1. I think Turkle is mistaken because she overlooks the safety precautions now needed in the current generations.
2. Turkle claim that the development of autonomy rests upon the questionable assumption that previous generations had no cell phones for safety and that was a right of passage.
Agreeing and Disagreeing Simultaneously
1. Though I concede that children still have a sense of independence I still insist that children rely to greatly on technology and its resources.
2. Although I agree with Turkle up to a point, I cannot accept her overall conclusion that technology is taking away our personal time, I feel I can get many this done faster and more efficiently with just my smart phone.
