Using examples from "The Veldt," develop a clear and concise theme for the topic of parenting and for the role of technology in our lives.

In my opinion, what Bradbury is saying about technology in
this story is that people in modern America (even back in his day) were getting to the
point where they were relying on technology too much.  My topic sentence for this would
be:

In this story, Ray Bradbury argues that people are
relying too much on technology and are losing some degree of their humanity as they do
so.

I think that Bradbury is arguing that permissive
parenting, parents who give in too easily to their kids, is a problem for society.  My
topic sentence would be

In this story, Bradbury makes the
case that modern parents have lost the respect of their children because they do not try
to discipline them enough.
