This article is an example of the bad side of the Internet.
It describes a new rehab facility in Britain. This rehab program is not for
drugs or alcohol but Internet addictions. At this facility, patients have to
give up all technology such as cellphones and computers. The unfortunate part
about this rehab is that majority of these patients are teenagers. This shows just
how much children growing up now depend on technology and the Internet. These
young patients are obsessed with constantly being connected to the grid and are
losing their ability to interact socially. Activities in this rehab program
include therapy sessions and taking the patients outside so that they can have
the real life experiences that they have been depriving themselves of.
