Internet plays crucial role in maintaining the smooth communication world-wide. It offers flexibility to human life by reducing the communication gap through platforms such as social media and web browsers. Using internet, an individual can connect with anyone all over the globe no matter how far the other person is located. However, in the era of technological advancement, there is arrival of some loopholes concerning about the effect of internet on social interaction.
In the first place where, internet helps to connect people, it lacks the sense of personal touch, which is of course irreplaceable. Lot of people now a days, particularly kids prefers spending their time in online gaming instead of physical activities which certainly reduces their interaction with other people. This can severely affect their mental health and due to lack of social-interaction, there is no exchange of ideas which can halt their thinking capability.
After all, internet is just a tool and Like any other tool, it has both dark and bright sides. It is matter of personal choice that how one utilises it. Like any other tool, internet has both dark and bright sides. Atleast for adults, I do not agree with the fact that internet should be an issue to concern about. However, for kids it is more about the parenting and the environment in which they are being raised. Providing a careful guidance and necessary restrictions, an individual can be taught to utilize the internet more effectively without affecting his/her social life.
