In the future, nobody will buy newspapers or books because they will be able to read everything they want online without paying. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

With the rapid growth of technology, it is believed that in coming years everything will be available online including books and newspaper. Everyone has access to anything they want without having to pay a penny. I disagree with
this
statement because it will cause many bad effects on people. It is becoming more and more customary that every single person started to relay on the internet. We cannot imagine living without it, but it is causing some very serious problems among various people.
Although
, reading is a very good habit and it allows you to increase your knowledge, but if we gain
this
knowledge for the cost of our health would it be worth it? I don’t think so. Children and teenagers spent mostly all of their time in front of computers, tablets and mobile phones, if they started reading magazines or novels on it,
that is

their eyesight very badly. Recent studies showed that today’s children are suffering from weak eyesight from a very early age, whereas their parents’ eyesight started showing weakness after the age of 40. While sitting at one place, for a long time, it can cause other issues too. Lack of exercise can cause obesity and heart problems. It has been observed, that kids and juveniles are adapting heart problems more rapidly than adults.
This
is because they have very less or no exercise. They neither have actual social interactions or verbal communication with their own family members, which is making them anti social.
For example
, if you ask a
child whether

child, whether
he likes to stay at home or go outside and meet different people, he always chooses to stay at home. In conclusion, everything has its own good or bad effect on society, but if we ignore the bad effects of the internet we are going to live with an insufferable loss. Our children and youngsters are our actual future and
hence
we need to work hard to save them and keep them away from being online all the time as much as we can.
