This paper analyses the relationship between children and teenagers and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). This technology is perfectly integrated in the lives of children and teenagers, and has no adverse effects on either their family or social relationships. Although whilst they recognise the “fun” aspect of the mobile telephone, its principal use is for communication, as may be seen from the fact that they give the greatest value to the sending of messages and making and receiving calls. Older children also use the computer and the Internet for school work and to obtain information, but even so they continue to use this technology for play or entertainment, and to communicate with each other by e-mail or the instant message system. It is the strong association between play and entertainment and ICT which leads children and teenagers to principally consider this technology as a means of communication, and it is the exchange of experiences based on this use which gives it its true value between Journalism and Literature. The aim is not to answer the questions just mentioned, but, with the help of these authors, point out some issues we regard as necessary when trying to answer them.
