The main visuals in this cartoon are 3people; Mother, Father and they're small son eating supper together. Also there is a text saying "Well Yes We Could See Your Blog...Or You Could Just TELL Us About Your School Day." This cartoon issues about the dehumanization of technology to small children, who doesn't use computers these days-which is a problem. It is a problem because use of technology takes the time of talking and socializing, like it shows in this cartoon. Since this small kid had written about his school day on a blog, he doesn't need/want to talk about it to his parents. Therefore, I could say that technology had influenced a small child in negative way, taking the time of talking together from him. This cartoon is ironic because these days this kind of small children doesn't use technology in this way. And this cartoon is being ironic by saying soon, technology will influence a small children like this, in a way it they do to adults. This cartoon relates to our study of technology, because we are learning how technology had influenced us in a positive/negative way. In order to make this cartoon to tell the author's opinion easier, author could add computer or laptop on the table at the back of this children. Or author could put a laptop on the dining table instead of meal, which signifies the influence of technology
