Technology has always helped societies advance in different ways throughout the centuries. Though, very few technologies have truly impacted the entire world like the Internet, television, computers and telephones. With such things comes great responsibility.
This week on HopeNet Radio, Dave and Jeff want to know how technology has impacted your family. Does your family have rules or limits on what things you allow in your home or do you let each person determine those things for themselves?
For parents, how have things like the Internet and cell phones affected your parenting?
For teens & young adults, how do you handle people who bully or make threats on cell phones, social media sites and the like? Have you had problems with bullies through technology? We’d also like to hear your thoughts on if having all these new media technologies positively or negatively affects people’s overall happiness or if it contributes to depression. Get in on the conversation.

It’s been said that you can never change your past, but you can always change the future. Choices have consequences and the only way we can receive forgiveness is by taking responsibility for our actions. This is a sobering message from Matthew Cordle about some choices he made that changed his life and how you can learn from them.
In a video recorded […] at his Northwest Side home, Cordle promises to tell the truth about the “blackout” drinking that led him to drive the wrong way on I-670 and crash head-on into Canzani’s vehicle near 3rd Street.
The 22-year-old man, his arm streaked with scars inflicted in the crash, also asks viewers of the video to make a promise — to not drink and drive.
Cordle has not been charged in the early-morning crash that killed Canzani. “When I get charged, I will plead guilty and take full responsibility for everything I’ve done to Vincent and his family,” he says in the video.
Get out the tissues. This video ruined me. With so much going wrong in today’s world, this video is a great reminder that we all have moments. Those moments are opportunities. We can make the most of them or let them pass by. This is what love is like.
Fred Stobaugh is his name. Here’s the story on Huffington Post:
Fred Stobaugh, from Peoria, Ill., wrote the lyrics to what he called “Oh Sweet Lorraine” after his 91-year-old wife died last April. The couple met in 1938 and were married for 73 years, according to ABC News.
“Oh sweet Lorraine,” the song begins. “I wish we could do all the good times over again.”
Stobaugh, who’s not a musician, entered the lyrics into a singer-songwriter contest at Green Shoes Studios in Illinois.
