The social media
problems gripping our girls
What kind of
things did you do when you were ten to thirteen? Did you still remember that?
Take me for example, I liked to played dolls, went to play guard with
neighbors, finished homework after class, and exercised with my family. It
seemed to nothing special for me; however, I have noticed that most of the
children had their own cellphones when they were ten to thirteen.
Today, I read an
article on news, reporting a case that a girl named Caroline is coerced by a
10-year-old boy at her school into texting him a photograph of her breasts.
(That's ridiculous) How could he force his classmate doing that? Then I
continue reading the following paragraph, and I realize it is social media that
cause the problem (because they don’t want to be bullied by their classmates so
that they compromise on requests). In addition, more and more children use
age-restricted social media sites to meet strangers; in contrast, I used letter
or MSN to contact people when I was young….
Why parents allow
their children do that? Because many parents do not see the dangers inherent in
the sites, as they are forming their opinion of them based on their own
experience, experts say. Thus, I think parents should pay more attention to
this issue not to let their kids indulge in social media and suffer from the
pressure of that.
Despite the fact
that we can’t live without social media, but neither can we rely on it too
much. We can use it wisely, such as getting some information to enlarge our
knowledge; but, be sure not to take most of the time using that.
