Narrator:-After about 1 month later Ethan's Mom noticed some

changes in Ethans behaviour. He barely studied and wasted time on
Internet for hours. He rarely engaged in any physical activities. He
changed from a outdoors fun loving teenager to a slave of social
media who surfed on internet for hours without any real purpose. His
mother talked to him about his condition and told him what had
happened to his mental and physical health.

Mom:-Ethan you know what you have been doing what consequences
you are facing.

Ethan:-What are you talking about Mom?

Mom:-I know me and you Dad work from home and are not able to
give much attention to you but don't think we are blind. I am clearly
able to see what had happened to you.

Ethan:-Why are you so angry for no reason?

Mom:-First of all your grades are below average.You were given the
computer for your studies not for uneccessary surfing on internet.You
have ruined your health, you have dark circles below your eyes and
stay up late in night.Don't
do any physical activities.What has happened to you?

Ethan realised his mistakes his mother's words reached to his heart
and help him understand his situation.They help him fight the
enslaving demon of addiction of social media.Ethan decided not to
use social media again and use interent only for studies.He started
giving attention to his physical health and did meditation for his
mental health.

Narrator:-So you saw if Internet and social media used in a wrong

way can have a negative affect on your physical and mental
health.There is no doubt if used in a correct and adequate use Internet
can be resourceful land, but if used in a wrong way it can turn into a
barrenland which eats away at your physical and mental health
unknowingly.So use the Internet carefully and in correct way so you
can use its resource to its full extent.
