Advantages of using Facebook on teenagers
To sum up everything that has been started so far, Facebook is the most well-
known social media app that teenagers enjoy the best for many particular
reasons. Facebook seems to be the best options for adolescents to stay in touch
with their friends and family, which is done by uploading pictures, posting
status and comment, sending private messages and so on. People can share
their feelings and what is happening in and around their daily life through
Facebook. This social media app also brings about joy and excitement for
people without wasting any money and helps people release their stress. And
Facebook is one of the finest sources to stay updated with the latest news and
information. Using Facebook definitely comes with negative effects, but not
everyone who uses the site is affected. Many teenagers are able to use the site
responsibly by not posting too much information and not spending too much
time on Facebook. The site is not completely negatively viewed, as long as
teenagers use it wisely.
