Social media does more good than bad for teenagers.

Social media does more good than bad for teenagers.

I disagree with this statement because social media like the Internet have been proven to make children dumber. In the past the Internet has been used to find out little fact to help you with your homework, now the Internet does most of it for you, all you have to do is copy and past!! The Internet has also been proven to make children lazier. Websites like facebook and twitter have reached more than 400 million active users each. Know these websites can be accessed from a phone as well as a computer which means that people that are addicted can now be on facebook wherever they are. There are now more that 200 million active users accessing facebook through their phone. it has been proven that use facebook on their phones are twice as active on facebook that non-mobile users.
These are the reason why i think that social media does more bad than good for teenagers.

  1. Khushal, this is not quite what we can expect of an able year 9 student... Check your spelling mistakes (eg. Know/now and capital I). You also need to develop your points a little. You need to consider the other side of the argument. In class, I suggested that you could look at the side you least agree with first and then find more compelling evidence for the side you most agree with. You also need to acknowledge sources. Where did you get the proof that the internet makes you dumber? There isn't any definitive evidence anywhere that it does...
