How is Facebook effecting People

I personally believe that Facebook has a tremendous effect on students. Most kids spend most of their time on Facebook and forget about their school work. Facebook is very distracting and addicting in my opinion. The use of Facebook can be dangerous for many young kids and their needs to be some sort of Internet safety, and a certain age for kids to get Facebook. Even though Facebook is a place for us as individuals to share our ideas and opinions it can also be very dangerous. Some kids add people that they do not even know on Facebook which is totally unsafe because they could be dangerous people. Most Facebook profiles are not even private which gives other people easy access to get your personal information. A lot of kids have a Facebook in middle school and I wonder what do they need a Facebook at such a young age? Facebook is another way for individuals to meet other people. Facebook makes it easier for people to start dating, I know people that are dating people on Facebook that they have never met, how is this safe in any way? I think that Facebook is a way that we allow society to see how we feel but also revealing all of our emotional and personal information which is not always the greatest thing.

I'm not saying that we should not have Facebook but we should send a lot less time on Facebook and worry more about their school work. People use Facebook as a way to get attention which is not always a bad thing but some young teens are so desparate for attention they are willing to do anything to get it such as putting up unappropriate pictures for everyone to see, where everyone can judge them. Even though Facebook was created for our entertainment it also brings a lot of problems and drama. A lot of girls have problems with one another mainly because of Facebook. Teenagers are more worried about Facebook then their actual lives and problems. If people were focused in school as much as they stay on Facebook we would have a lot more focused and smarter young kids. Facebook is seen everywhere it is always on the news, it is now on our phones and of course on the computer, there are so many ways for us to have access into Facebook. If people keep sending so much time on Facebook I think our society will be at risk in many ways. There should be a time limit on how long we can stay on Facebook that way we will not waste our whole day on it but we can do other things that we love to do and be much more focused on our school work.

Facebook is making us stupid?? You tell me !
