While I'm as much of an Internet user as most, I didn't grow up with it and managed very nicely.  I'm guessing if it just disappeared of be just fine.

We'd be doing the same thing we always did. The Internet is a very recent phenomenon.

I grew up in Oz where there was no TV till I was 19. I still love all the radio drama/comedy/quizzes and so on they used to broadcast. And, of course, there were no mobile phones till the 1990s.

These days we are all speaking a language that few of us would have understood even 20 years ago.

I never had it growing up and didn't start using it until the the mid 90's maybe. The only thing that would really bother me would be that I would have to go shopping for things again. That and not having this website around and missing online PC games. We would just have to go back to the old ways of doing things. Good or bad ? Each has a point.

We use the Internet to communicate more than ever and it’s become an integral part of any standard means of communication.

Read newspapers and talk to people face to face.  For centuries that worked wonderfully.
