Social media affects teenagers

Social media can be used to keep in contact with others all around the world. The Saying is whatever you post on social media is on there for life so watch what you post. We can use social media to help us get through obstacles that we have been going through. A lot of times being on social media you are able to see someone else story and get tools on how to work through the problems and push beyond the obstacles that are in front of you. When I was younger I had a friend that wanted to come out to the world that he was gay but he didn’t have the courage or platform to do so, I came up with the idea of a social media page that is Anonymous and that would be his way of saying his true story. When have a social media page you can see everything that the world have to say about your everyday decision. It came make you feel low about your self and a lot of time that make people want to kill they self for what they see. Society is being affected by using facebook 24\7 to get through their everyday lives. 33% says that facebook is having a “ Negative impact on society” according to Mcginns new survey. Facebook’s former vice president, Chamath Palihapitiya recently said “ We have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works” and advised people to take a “ Hard break” from work.  because this particular app poisons citizens minds all over the world. From making threats to , fighting and anything disgusting to the eye is a negative impact on this society.

  1. Your article speak big volumes. Social media can be a gift and/or curse depending how it's used. People shouldn't become so obsess with the images on social media. Also, know the difference between what's real and what's fake.
