Advantages of Social Media For Teenager

Advantages of social media for teenager
⿡The most important advantage that social media is we can Strengthening Friendships and
Relationships. Social media let us contact with our friends and relative. Especially during the MCO
period", we can rely on social media platforms like WhatsApp, Messenger, WeChat, Google Meet,
and others to communicate with our friends. This is especially important during the MCO period
when we cannot go out. Through post the story or post on social media, we can also easily share
updates and keep up with others' lives. Imagine that we live in ancient world, we only have the small
phone that can contact other people and it take us RM1 per minute when we contact, every word we
say to each other, our heart is very painful. If we not have the social media in the MCO terms, it will
be very terrible, right?
⿢Moreover, social media can expand our horizons and increase our knowledge. If we use it rationally,
we can unlock a world of learning opportunities and enrich our understanding of the world around
us. In this modern world, we not only can depend on books to gain a new knowledge, we also can
use the social media that more efficient, more convenient, more effective. Currently, we might think
of Google as the primary platform for searching information, but in this era ChatGPT plays an
important role. In my opinion, the most effective function of chat GPT is we can find the difference of
two things. When we use Google, it can be difficult to find detailed information, because google is
written by people so a lot of compare we need will less appear. Let us compare the Google and
ChatGPT. We find the difference of “currency” and "monetary". In google, we can see it change the
word "monetary" to "money", if it does manage to provide the information, it might not always be
complete. But when we use ChatGPT, the response is clear and often includes examples.. But it
should be emphasized that the chat GPT information sometimes also contain error.
⿣Besides, social media provides a platform to give us to express our thought, creativity and talents.
For example, when we create videos of singing, playing games, or other activities, we can post it into
the social media such as YouTube. And maybe we will get some feedback and improve our skills in
the process. Furthermore, it's not just about performances; articles, drawings, and handicrafts can
also be shared on social media. We not only enjoy our achievements ourselves; we can also share
them with other people and the world. Through social media, we can also express our feelings and
thoughts. At our age, we will face a lot of stress not only related to family, friends, studying, mental
well-being, and others; and during these times, we might feel lost. a popular platform for expressing
feelings is confession pages. Actually, as long as we don't give a comment that attack other people's,
this platform is a very good platform. Because sometimes something we will feel embracing to talk
with our friends, teachers or family, we don't need to keep it to ourselves. We can express it on
confession pages and feel more comfortable.
Disadvantages of social media for teenagers
1. The main disadvantage of social media, as everyone knows, is cyberbullying. As mentioned earlier,
social media provides a platform for teenagers to express their thoughts and feelings. But at the
same time, some teenagers perhaps lack concern from their parents or don’t have happiness in the
real world, so they choose to seek a sense of presence in the virtual world. On social media, they can
wear a mask, hide behind screens, and express their opinion without worry, as others don't know
who they are. Sometimes, the bully is not just a teenager, the bully does not regard the age.
Teenagers sometimes become the target of bullying. Sadly, in recent years, some people couldn't
overcome online bullying and chose suicide to end their lives. This is a very tragic situation.
Therefore, cyberbullying is a problem that must be paid attention to and solved. Cyberbullying would
have serious consequences.
2. There is a disadvantage to teenagers social media use that cannot be ignored, that is damage to
their mental and physical health. A lot of things online that wouldn’t end might make teenagers
interested and make teenagers addicted 上瘾 to them. Even sometimes, teenagers stay up late to
use social media, which can affect the quality of their sleep and impact their mental health. It will
cause the teenagers to doze off in class and not be able to focus. Besides, certain electronic products
are full of radiation 辐射， this radiation is formed by invisible waves that can move through the air.
It will make our eyes which are very important in our life tired and impact our physical health.
According to 2019 research in the U.S., more than 6,500 teenagers from 12- to 15-year-olds who
spent more than three hours a day using social media might be at heightened risk for mental health
problems. Another 2019 study of more than 12,000 13- to 16-year-olds in England found that using
social media more than three times a day predicted poor mental health and well-being in teens.
3. At the last, teenagers will easily be tricked by the information on social media. Some websites only
provide information that they want you to see. Some information would be false or misleading. Like
the paper in the video, it may be a circle, or it may also be a diamond. They might exaggerate 夸大
things to get more people's attention and more views. The information on social media is too much,
we don’t have enough time to figure out if it's true or not. Some teenagers who lack mature 成熟
minds would believe the "fake news" and impact their minds. Some online scammers also trick
teenagers through teenagers’ greed. On a small scale, they might trick the teenagers into buying
something that doesn't work. On a larger scale, it could even put teenagers lives in danger. In this
modern world, online scams are becoming easier and more advanced. Some even use AI technology
to trick teenagers, and this makes it harder for us to tell what's real and what's fake. They might
pretend to be a teenager’s family member and tell them to do something that might hurt
themselves. It is very horrible.
