#people #technology #effects #lives #ones
Nowadays,
people
 think social media like Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, and other web have many negative effects on real
life
. I partially disagree with
this
 issue, and I will explain the benefits and
problems
 in
this
 essay. Social media have a
lot
 of
problems
 in real
life
 because they cause
people
 to lose focus on
life
 and not pay attention to errands.
For instance
, when
people
 go to Instagram, they see many
people
 saying lies and they believe that they are true and they want to change their
life
 based on the story seen on Instagram. While they have a good effect on real
life
.
For example
,
people
 can see their friends in another
world
 and they can talk together. On the other, hand they can access easy to anything they want and find a
lot
 of essays about their
problems
.
In addition
, they can understand the news for the
world
.
However
, I think these causes have a good effect but they have a bad effect on the heart because some news makes
people
 get depression. In my opinion, I think when the
world
 turns to work with electronic devices, they have to change their minds about a
lot
 of issues in the
world
 because everything has to be controlled by technology and humans do not have any control over anything. To sum up, when
life
 goes to modern technology, they should have a
lot
 of
problems
 but they learn to work with technology in the true way they help folk to improve their
life
 and better future in the
world
.
