Sub: Bad effect of social networking sites on the school children.
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I want to draw the attention of people on the bad effect of social sites on children.
Firstly, teenagers are attracted by social networking sites as they can provide the latest status of their friends. Take Facebook for example, people can upload photos and share things about themselves. Therefore, teenagers can easily reach the information of their friends and get along with them. This can also encourage teenagers to form an intimate relationship with their friends.
Secondly, teenagers are enticed by these sites as they can provide a range of current affairs and comments regarding them. As rarely have teenagers had the habit of reading newspaper, they do not know much about the society. Yet, the social networking sites provide much news and many interesting comics about the news, teenagers would find that it is intriguing to read things around the globe and become more enthusiastic towards the community. For instance, the establishment of national education promoted a wave of discontent and came into spotlight a few months ago. Teenagers are very interested in it because the social networking sites kept sharing the news. Ultimately, they can have a deeper explorations to the news.
Thirdly, these sites greatly provide channels for youngsters to meet friends with mutual interest as these sites contain chatting room and message function. Therefore, teenagers will find that the sites are attracting as they can meet more friends from diverse regions.
So, its my request to you to publish this article in your newspaper. I shall be obliged to you for this kindness.
Thankfully yours,
Shubham sharma

Subject: Social Media and children
Sir,
While researching the effects of social media addiction in our population, I came to the realization of the prevalence this epidemic has in our society. A large majority of adolescents are being negatively affected socially and academically, we just choose not to do anything about is because social media is assumed to only be a positive force. Studies have shown that young people are experiencing effects such as internet harassment, privacy exposed, and consuming harmful content such as violence and pornography. Effects away from the computer include negative impacts in academic performance, social lives, family relation and amount of sleep, to name only a few.
To begin a push in the other direction, we must first realize what some of the common precursors are and what can be done to stop this problem at its source. Children and adolescence have avoid responsibility and to forgot their problems. This makes it extremely hard for us in today's society to control what is such a powerful force so that it does not become detrimental to our society.
The most basic early warning signs are heavy internet/social media use and reliance on these meet a specific need. It is extremely important to understand that social and psychological motivation may cause people to turn the media for gratification. Many of children are spoils their lives using these. It depends on the mentality of child how they use it. Everything in life has advantage and disadvantage. But parents must realize about it.
Thanks
