The Veldt The Veldt The story The Veldt touches on a lot of topics that are happening right before out eyes in today’s society. Although they may not be as extreme as the Veldt, there are similarities that we can closely relate to. Ray Bradbury’s attempt to foresee the future of where our society was heading was closer than anyone could imagine in his era. He predicts our society becoming so dependant on technology that will forget how to do the simplest things and eventually the technology that we have created will overcome us. The way that Mr. Bradbury describes the lifestyle that the Hadley’s have is exactly what we as a society are looking for now. We all want to make things a little easier for ourselves, but are we going to far' Precooked meals, electronic toothbrushes, dishwashers, videogame systems, and remote control vacuum cleaners are making. These are the things that are becoming the norm in our society. We are all becoming dependant on technology to do many things for us. Even go as far to occupy our children so we don’t have to deal with them that extra hour of the day.
