Hello every one.

I am very happy to here on discussing about this topic.

On using social media we have some advantages and disadvantages.

Advantage is we learn about a particular topic what we want and we have to gain a opinion about that topic As well as knowledge of that topic.

And disadvantage is youth and children cannot spend their valuable time with their family members and they didn't know value of the relationships they always be alone with their mobile being online and they cannot know what is going out side they always busy with their personals.

Thank you.

Heyaa friends!

Myself Yathy,

In my opinion, social media is that tool which helped us to get modernise and make our tasks easy like shopping, searching for an information, and getting to know about our well-wishers who live in far-off places etc. Yeah so it helps us a lot but since everything in the world which has some advantages has a few disadvantage also and the biggest disvantage is misuse of social media by the youth as the devote much of their time in these skipping their studies which ultimately hampers their future so if this issue is settled then the conception about the social media by the researchers could change and they just can find out its merits only.

Thank you.

The impact of social media on youngsters have become a major point of discussion recently. There has been a concern on whether a parent should limit their children's access to the internet. I strongly believe that parent should guide their children and acknowledge them the drawback as well.

Hi,

I am Deepti.

According to my opinion, impact of social media on youth is good or beneficial as well as bad also.

Good in this way can be, we can search any topic easily and we can interact with people who are either nearer or far away from me. We can learn many things from social media and one of them is improving communication skills.

And Bad in this way can be youth who are the base of our nation waste their whole of the time on using internet only, they are not thinking of their carrier because it is very addicted.

As we all know social media is a lifeline of many people in the current era. Social media is a platform which enables us to interact with anyone who is far away from us,

So there are positive and negative impacts of social media.

Positive Impacts of social media.

1) Learning--- Now a day learning platforms are not limited. In early ages, if children start to watching channels he may learn the basics of communication skills.

2) MARKETING---AS on social media all age groups are available so in spite of wasting money on social media or and campaigns they can just advertise their products on social media.

3) Interactions-- The First thing which attracts children to use social networking sites get a chance to interact with anyone either he is nearer or far away from them and to make friends.

Negative Impacts:

1) Cyberbullies--the tremendous effect of SOCIAL MEDIA SITES are cyberbullying and we have seen so many cases of children who committed suicides.

2) Addiction-- people or children gets addicted to it and they do not think that there are only 24 hours in a day. They are wasting their time without thinking about their future.

3) Privacy-- children update their social media sites on every new thing they do it may harm thier personal life so it is also a negative impact.

THANKYOU.
