Social media became a very important part of our daily lives that we can’t let go because it connects the world together and makes it a small village , It may negative and positive impacts on all categories of people specially the youngest .
Social media is a visual passport to the world it basically changed the way we live over the years especially on how people are raising their children, in nowadays parents are counting on social media platforms like YouTube and TikTok to help them control kids’s attitude and calm them while they are doing their jobs and that exactly is a very dangerous habit that may has many bad consequences like laziness and anxiety also the child will grow ahead his time it will makes him irresponsible problems of consntrating for example my niece has been given a phone since the age of two years now she is five and she cannot focus on her studies and she’s basically addicted to the phone . And that’s why older people should be aware about how they have to treat their kids .
Despite the fact that social media has so many negative effects it can be also very helpful for young people if they used it in the right way like in studying or learning new skills or having foreign friends that can help gain new languages and introduce them to new cultures that open their eyes to the world , I personally had an experience with a foreign friend that teaches me a lot about her country and the way they live and we are still friends since 10 years now . I believe that social media is neither good nor bad , it actually depends on us and how we choose to use it .
In conclusion social media is something that we can not leave behind so it’s our responsibility to learn and teach the youngest how take all the benefits of it and stay safe .
