Teenagers in Russia now have a large number of addictions. The worst of them ... attention ... no cigarettes, no alcohol, and not even drugs, but social networks. The Internet rules modern youth. Millions of teenagers are now sitting at their computers and, not understanding why they are doing this, continue to sit and grow dull. Dull from statuses, "cool" graffiti on the walls.
And it’s not enough, after all, who among the teenagers is aware that by doing something or sending status to the news feed, they independently work for the office of the creators of the site. In professional language, people independently create content for people (their friends). This is the same if you yourself wrote articles on this site. But you don’t do it. It's so hard to write something for someone. However, at the same time everyone in the evenings writes themselves a new status, only someone like (put a heart).
By the way, regarding the problem of the harmful influence of social networks on youth, we received a letter from our reader Buj32 with the following content (reproduced with permission of the author):
“We survived. The more hearts, the steeper I am, the more popular. Why, let’s, as in the 90s, save up and brag about the fact that I have 100 more. More or less ... Hypocrisy. A social network is one continuous chain of hypocrisy and lies.
- Hello how are you?
- Hi everything is great!
What can be “super” if a person spends his youth is the happiest period in his life to communicate with a friend from a neighboring entrance through a computer. And only communication would be okay. It is necessary to change the status, otherwise it has not changed for 2 hours. Damn, guys, you’d better go play, go on a hike, especially since it’s summer. ”
