There are various different social networking platforms that allow people to build relationships, whether professional or personal. Even if individuals are far apart they can still communicate effectively using a computer. After COVID, many people started to work from home to keep from getting sick. Some are even able to travel and spend more time with their families by working from home, this helps create a positive work-life balance. Schools were also forced to close during the pandemic and computers were extremely imperative for students to still be successful because most if not all classes were taught online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, although there are many pros that come along with having computers. There is undeniably many challenges that come along with having one as well. I mentioned previously how computers have opened up opportunities for people to connect with other people from all over the world. However, that can be dangerous because there are predators, frauds, and other bad people who scour the internet looking for people to take advantage of. Another disadvantage of having computers is that some people can spend so much time on their computers that they lack in having any other human interaction. This could hurt people socially because when it comes down to having face to face interactions, that may be hard for a person to do because they avoid it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything comes with it&#8217;s own disadvantages. When it comes to computers, it is important for people to use their best judgement and make smart decisions. Also, it is essential to balance how much time one is  spending on the computer so that they are able to live in the present moment. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We live in a society where Computers have changed the world drastically.
