Facebook ruining teenagers

From the Newspaper Published August 16, 2013

TEENAGERS nowadays spend most of their time on Facebook. Their morning is with Facebook and their evening is with Facebook.

This results in the lack of personality development and speaking skills.

I do not understand how reading about other people’s lives or wasting time looking at tons of pictures is time well spent. Facebook is a teenage fad and addiction. It is causing distress in families and ruining family relationships.

Facebook is wasting the precious time of youngsters, who should limit the use of Facebook and concentrate on real-life social activities.

Its true ,excess of every thing is harmful and youngster can not realize they deprive by the real world. This virtual world can not develop that much personality and other skills as they need in this stage.There are other sites for information, knowledge , and research which develop the personality of youngsters.

In my 80 years of life, I notice that this is perhaps the 70th teenage fad and addiction (as they say) that is wasting their lives. But they all grew up with no visible affect or influence.
