These days, technology helps my family in many small ways every day. In the morning, my mother uses an app on her phone to check the weather before she goes to work. My father works from home twice a week, so he talks to his team through video calls and shares files on the internet. For me, the most useful tool is my tablet because I can read e-books and do my homework on it. Last week, our teacher showed us an app that translates English words in seconds, and it has helped me understand my lessons better. However, my parents have set one important rule: nobody uses phones during dinner because family time is more valuable than screens. I think this rule is fair. Technology is wonderful when we use it wisely, but we should not let it control our whole day.
