HOW ARE TEENS EVER GOING TO FIND THEM SELFS IF THEY BELIEVE WHAT IS BEEN SHOWN ON TV AND THE SOCIAL MEDIA?

No she does not get it. You are correct though. She should feel famous though. I will be quoting her for my dissertation, as an example for how detrimental social networking and the internet CAN be for the young generation. Sad.

Dear Lord....... Parents.... DONT give your child access to social networking on any level - Let them do it when theyve left home. It will only cause them (AND YOU) problems.

It also explains the reason for this thread.... "Effects of social media on children. YOU and your answers are proof enough... Get it ? Lol

I noticed that it's not a continual stream of video, it's skipping to different parts, hence the sound skips and the jerky hand moves. Did you just extract all the "Social media is bad" bits and use that for a pros and cons list? If people are being bullied on social networks, can't they just sign out and try something else, like playing a computer game or reading a book, or going outside? That's what I don't get about this "They can get you in your home now" stuff.
