Technology-free teen Fabio Contini is a normal fifteen-year-old teenager. He enjoys chatting with his friends,
playing sports and having a laugh. There is one thing about Fabio which makes him a little different
from all his friends, though. He doesn't use a mobile phone or a computer in his free time. What is
the reason for Fabio's choice?
Fabio says, 'Well, a year ago my family were all very worried about me. I was sitting at my
computer all the time. I never switched it off! I couldn't stop texting my friends and surfing the net.
I fell out with my mum and dad. They were unhappy because I didn't spend any time with them. I
didn't listen to them because I was always wearing headphones. I stopped doing sport and didn't go
to football training any more. My friends got fed up with me because I stopped talking to them.
Anyway, when I failed all of my tests at school, we all knew there was a problem. I had to deal with
it myself so I decided to go technology free for a week.'
It's a year later and Fabio is still technology free. 'Of course I use technology in class - to
translate words in English for example. I don't use it in my free time. However, sometimes it does
make life a bit difficult," he says. 'Sometimes people can be rude. They call me names because I don't
have a mobile phone and I don't know what's happening on Facebook. It doesn't matter, though. I
think my life is much better now. I have become much happier since I stopped using computers all
the time
So what is better about Fabio's life now? 'I'm really sporty now,' he says. "I'm getting on
well with my friends and family and I'm getting good grades at school, too. I've taken part in a race
and I've played in a lot of football matches. I'm just much more excited about life than I was before!'
