   Media and Its Impact on Teenagers

 

Media has had quite a deep impact on teenagers. This impact

has both good and bad side. Social media and networking sites such as Facebook

and Twitter have become source of major distractions for students. Young boys

and girls seem to have become inordinately addicted to these sites. They are

thoughtlessly and uselessly wasting their precious time on these sites. Wise

people say time well utilized is time well spent, but the youth of today is

only and only wasting time on chatting, messaging, uploading photographs and

modifying profiles. The smart phones and 4G connections have made the situation

worse. Accessing such sites has become so easy that young boys and girls are

using these sites almost everywhere and almost all the time. Similarly they

wait for their favourite TV programs with such intense longing!

 

Students these days appear to be more worried about

connecting to their friends on Facebook than being concerned about doing their

studies, assignments and projects! The other major disadvantage of the

increasing use of such networking sites is the spread of obscenity. This is

having a very negative impact on the impressionable minds of our young children

and leading them astray. 

 

On the other hand, social networking and the facilities of media exchange

formats facilitated by advancement in internet has made the life and work of so

easy for everyone. Everything is available on social networking sites and

platforms. There is not a single sphere or walk of life where social networking

and media are not being used! Education, industry, finance, defense, teaching,

learning, research, medicine, accounting, entertainment, internet, online

teaching, telecommunication, media, and space research and exploration. It is

internet and computer everywhere.

 

In

conclusion, it can be said that media is neither good nor bad, we have to teach

our teenagers how to use it judiciously for the betterment of the self.
