Before the invention of the telephones, people used to write letters, or get on a horse and deliver the message to the person face to face. Back then when we didn’t have telephones it was difficult to reach someone very quick if you had an emergency, than it is now. Communication had been made faster and easier now with the usage of telephones. Telephones have also saved many peoples lives. If someone is hurt, and we need an ambulance or the police, we just pick up our phone and dial the number for whatever emergency. But, there aren’t just pro’s of the telephone. There is a major con. The use of telephones has been making people less social when they are always hooked to there phone.
