about

 the effect it is having on our social interactions which I totally agree

with
this
 view is because people now spend more time on the
internet
 doing what doesn'

 benefit them.
For instance
, watching videos of immoral activities, as the time being spent watching these videos could be spent on building good
communication
 skills with people around.

people, which

 help in building their people skills, good

For instance

 around me for something I need all because I probably don'

 want to get up from where am sitting or I don'

 actually feel like talking.
However
, the
internet
 has truly created ways of communicating worldwide through ( Skype, Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram, Zoom, Email, and all other social medias) so you don'
t
 have to travel far or take a lot of time to send a letter to someone in another country or journey down to deliver goods and services to a person but
this
 same
internet
 has so much limited physical and social interactions between people. In conclusion, the
internet
 does not help to build one's people skills,
communication
 skills and other necessary skills needed to have a good, proper and sound social interaction with people.
