Some people believe that social media sites, such as Facebook or Twitter, have a negative impact on young people and their ability to form personal relationships. Others believe that these sites bring people together in a beneficial way.

It is true that
technology
 becomes one of the most essential things in our
life
 right now. Every day we are using
technology
. Social
media
 is one of them. Because the
technology
 development is growing bigger, including social
media
, now we can communicate with our friends, family, or other
people
 who are living far from us in other areas, cities, and even in other countries.
Technology
 makes
people
 who are far become closer. It is really a good thing. But there are no
such
 things as perfection. Not only advantages but
also
 social
media
 have disadvantages. One of the social
media
 disadvantages is it can make
people
 who can not hold themself become addicted to it. Some
people
 can not control themself to scroll through social
media
 to see other
people
’s
life
 updates or just to find interesting information about celebrities, movies, hobbies, or anything that can make them satisfied or answer their curiosity.
This
 can happens to adults, young
people
, and even
children
.
Children
 can not
use
 social
media
 freely. They need parents' supervision to
use
 social
media
. If parents do not control how their
children
use
 social
media
, it can affect
children
’s social
life
, even their entire
life
. It is an important thing for parents to teach and guide their
children
 on how they can
use
 social
media
 in the right way and not overuse it. If
people
 are already addicted to social
media
, they will face difficulty to form a relationship with other
people
 in real
life
.
Therefore
 we have to
use
 social
media
 carefully and wisely.
