People
from different age groups have been showing an inclination toward using social networking sites while
this
kind of communication causes many dangers. While using social
media
can cause in being exposed to inappropriate content, it can be useful if used carefully. The advantage of
this
issue is that since the invention of social
media
, many
people
have been better able to connect with each other and
also
to keep up to date with the lives of their friends, families, co-workers and even celebrities,

are aware of the risks of using social

the advantages of social

far outweigh the disadvantages, and
children
and adults alike should be allowed to benefit from
