Social media is just a waste of time and mental ability. No one can find it useful from starting to end. In my case, I get badly addicted of FB. In a day I probably open my FB account near about 40 times and my book near about 1 or 2. See the difference.
Social media also cause a great impact on our confidence. Generally, if any time I have ten or more messages on FB then I feel that people are becoming attracted towards me and I feel so confident whether when there is no message then I feel that I am loosing my charm and get feels so bad for me.
But this is only virtual world boy real.
In the real world, I have so many best friends who care for me a lot but due to FB and WhatsApp, I didn't get time for my real friends I realize it later. Friends I have five breakups on FB. Hahaha. By the girls which I never have seen them. How funny all that and after few days all forget. Fb relationships are not real they are only a waste of mind as well as time. Get rid of this as soon as possible.
Today I deleted my FB app from my phone and going out by this virtual world to real world.
Thank you, friends.

Online social networks have a negative impact on today's youth. Now, they are good at chatting on WhatsApp, but they are not good at the person sitting next to him/her.
Youth wastes a lot of time there just to peep in whats going on in others life, due to which they skip their daily meals which leads to deterioration in their health & also increases the chances anxiety, depression in them.

There was a time when children use to play physically, they used to go to playgrounds nd played with his/her friends. But today the scenario has changed. Today children are more into social network or PC games than playing physically. So, they are more into a virtual world than the real world.
Today's teenagers spend more time in chatting with strangers over social network than chatting with their relatives. And this is not only limited to only children and teenagers, even some adults are too getting addicted towards social network. This has effected drastically over their mental health. Students are scoring less because of lack of motivation that is caused by excessive use of social network.
Even suites have found that social network addiction affects the genes and weakens the immune and hormone level. So, its the time for people to think whether they want to live in a virtual world full of virtual friends (most of the friends in social network are strangers) or they will choose to live in the real society.

Hi I'm Bhoomesh,
Social network is one of the best feature in the world. It can contains positives and negatives based on which way we are using. Now a days all are addicting to social networks but, some people using in proper way and other people using wrong way. In proper way we are saving our time on online shopping and connecting with friends and relatives. To disclose the an incident of any place and anywhere in the world. We can chat or video calling using apps like skype and viber etc.
Another way to the people are using to time consuming every day they are waste of time and chatting with fake friends. In these days number of sites are launching some are useful but not all. The key role to addict youth on social network is smart phones. So we conclude that using social network is depending on us to select way.

Good afternoon,
As I think social networking is just a tool which depends on how we people use it. If we use it in limited and effective way then it is simply the best gift we get in this modern era. It's advantage are unlimited we can get in touch with friend, family and even the unknown one for completely free. Sharing picture and feeling to many people in just a single click, it is also time effective as one can simply post the message on his/her wall and it spread to every one.
However some people also use it spread irrelevant thing on the social networking site which are unsocial and hurting other religion or cast. Evil are also spread through SNS.
Thank You.

Heya.
This is Kyra.
The Social network is like connecting and attaching the people with the whole world. Our lives have become much easier through this. What we can't do? Literally, everything is possible on this. We can share every inch of information. Chats in real time, video conferencing etc. Etc. Has been possible because of this sort of gizmo.
But it is a bitter truth that everything has its pros and cons. It is too multifaceted.
There are underlying drawbacks of social sites. Children use to waste their ideal time on sites than studying. They are addicted to it like an alcoholic to wine. And then it leads to longtime ailments and sprains.
Last but not the least. Use of anything in excess is bad. And it depends on the ultimate user whats boon for him and whats bane.
Thanking you.

Hi, everyone.
According to my point of view, the main objective of social networks was to get connected to the world and people who are far away from you.
But people are so busy in connecting to people who are not near them and are forgetting people around them.
Yes, useful information can be shared through social networking sites but till what extent are people really sharing.
Youth today is mainly crazy for Facebook Twitter Instagram and many.
Everything which has been created in this world will have its own pros and cons.
It depends on the people how they utilize.
Social networking sides have both negative and positive effect on today's youth.
It helped the youth in socialising at the same time created a fear of stalking and hacking.
It helped the youth to know the facts and figures but at the same time created a doubt whether is it true or not.
It also helped the youth who wanted to share their views about something at the same time ruined some lives.
Nowadays the trend finding your love is also by social networking but also created a fear of fraud and cheating or any criminal offence.
So concluding according to my opinion it has both the effects.

In my point of view, Social media network is very good. It gives a lot of knowledge about the world happens. Adults points of view it is good but when coming to the children they know about lots of unwanted things. So it's the effect the education and future. Maybe in the future parents are control of not allowing children to use social media the avoid misuse of things. They know about serious of social media.

Social media has both merit and demerit. It mainly depends on upon our usage. Probably it cannot say social media affects the life of youth but it depends on their character.

Here is my opinion about the topic.
Without the social network, how we will know things what are happening around.?
With social networking, we will know what is happening all over the world. Social networking is like information at your fingertips. It keeps us connected with world and people who are far us. Different people use the social network in the different way a student can get knowledge, they can share their views, they get information from all over the world. Some organizations use to promote their goods. It also creates awareness among people. Everything in the world has positives and negatives even have. We have take positives and should neglect negatives and should keep going on.
