Answer to Question 1

Answer: A technology addict consistently spends hours online or texting instead of eating, sleeping, studying, or interacting with friends in person. Signs of addiction include sleep deprivation, a disregard for personal health, and neglecting responsibilities and family and friends. They may only feel good when they are connected and are moody or uncomfortable otherwise.
