Teenagers nowadays, they do spend too much time on social networks.
I believe that it’s kind of an addiction.
Especially in the past few years.
And, for example, you can see it when teenagers gather.
Like you go out, you go to parties and stuff
and there’s lots of friends together
and none of them are really talking,
they’re just all sitting around on their phones or on the computer.
Or when you talk, you don’t really talk about
things that have happened to you, more like things that you,
you don’t really talk anymore.
You just tell, you tell people things on the internet.
People that you don’t really know.
I think today
social networks have become such an
integrated part of our lives,
especially for teenagers.
And there’s so many, so many functions that
that we use in this technological age,
like sharing photos.
And I think that’s quite sad, in a way,
because it’s taken us away from
the way things used to be where
we’d spend more time face-to-face with our friends.
I think that nowadays teenagers spend
a lot of time on Facebook and on Twitter
and they care a lot about uploading photos and looking at statuses.
I mean, nowadays people should think that the,
they should notice it’s quite unhealthy
to be on the computer all day long.
There’s no physical activity taking place and,
personally, I don’t think that it’s that much fun to be doing,
to be on the computer all day.
In my opinion, when they use Facebook or Twitter,
it’s just for looking at other people’s lives
or showing off about their own.
Well, to be honest,
I think social networking is a brilliant thing.
I mean sites like Facebook, YouTube, and other media sites
have allowed people to, well,
communicate with each other more freely
and pretty much just sharing ideas,
which I think is a positive thing.
However, that doesn’t, there are a few people that are,
well, addicted, let’s say, to these sites
and will spend, in my opinion,
way too long checking their status, checking their friends.
I mean, I know people that have, I don’t know,
thousands of friends, and it’s just, well, ridiculous.
