Have you ever wondered what the world would be like if their was no social media? Would everyone communicate and be friends? Or would people stay indoors all day. I think the world would be a better place because people need to take a break from technology. People are forgetting their, manners, grammar, social skills, and emotions because of social media.
First of all, kids and teens are always on social media and talking to there friends. According to No Easy answers pg. 32 “Instead, they are staring at their devices, scrolling through their news feed, and status updates.” This shows that people are to distracted with social media. According to No Easy Answers p.35 “You don’t ask your friends what they really thought because you don’t want to be a downer.” This proves that people are too scared to say there opinions and what they think because people might judge them on social media. Clearly, kids are too involved with social media and electronics.
On the other hand there may be some friendly people who use social media for important things and there is also autocorrect to correct your grammar. People can also speak up to prove points. According to page 35 of No Easy answers someone doesn’t speak up because they want to fit in anyone to agree with their friends on social media. This proves that in some ways social media is good for people and also bad. In fact social media states that people can advertise different things to help raise awareness like cancer, suicide, drug abuse, and more. This shows that it depends which way you choose to use social media .To sum it up social media can also help people and doesn’t always have to be bad.
People are forgetting Their Manners, grammar, social skills, and emotions because of social media. On social media, people can hate, or they can help raise awareness of things. People can also learn to speak different languages and make new friends.So now that I think about it social media is a good and a bad thing, according to how you use it.
