Social Media and its Impact on Children and Adolescent
Social media has sprung in the last decade and been excessively relied on in the last 5 years. It brought with it, its own challenges especially for the growing inexperienced mind, when there is no affective way to fully supervise.
Social media can be addictive in nature, because of curiosity about the contacts, latest events and many more. Children and especially Adolescent grow physically much more than mental maturity in given time. They can have false perception of control over their behavior that actually can be misleading. When youth engage in Electronic media activity, it become hard for them to stop the activity and focus on educational and other productive work. This is not uncommon that youth lags behind schoolwork, assignment submission and so forth. Their school performance can decline and hence grades. Youth usually have free time at night, majority of night may be spent by texting, sexting or other electronic activities leaving not enough time for sleep, which can impact the physical as well as mental health. Sufficient good night sleep is very essential for healthy brain functioning. Now the slogan of “ I am a night bird” may not be very healthy and it can become as fashion to stay up and may be considered as a sign of being up-to-date and cool. By learning too much and not being able to process, the information may lead to confusion state and youth may not know how to handle many complex emotions because of too much involvement in other persons business too soon.
Youth may get used to the cyber world and it may seem easy to stay like this instead of facing reality.
