THE USE OF INTERNET BY TEENS SHOULD BE LIMITED

With the use of technology nowadays, particularly the internet, it should be

limited in access to teens. It should and will always be limited, mainly to
prohibited sites inappropriate for young children or students since they may
influence how they understand our society. With every passing, it has become
more critical for our daily activities. For teens, the internet has become more
important because it is beneficial, and with the help of the internet, they get their
tasks done. Internet addiction is a big issue; therefore, access to it has to be
limited to students. The cause is because of a lack of creativity and thinking, they
become more antisocial, and it's an easier way of cheating. But teens are using
the internet so much. Therefore, it affects their personal and social life. Students
should have limited internet access since some online materials and sites
disclose pornography, which may impair their development, mainly how they
think. It will lead to their engaging in hazardous behaviors, hurting society.
There are several reasons to limit teens' internet use. For starters, teens spend
much too much time playing video games. Several years ago, the number of
teens who played video games climbed somewhat. The number of teenagers
who play video games has risen dramatically in recent years. Second, teens may
access pornographic periodicals and films over the internet.
The internet has both advantages and disadvantages. But, when thoroughly
studied, the internet has many more benefits than problems. People should focus
on these advantages since the internet will always exist, and its future depends
on the youthful generation. It should guide teens on the best ways to utilize the
internet rather than having limited access. They will learn best practices and
maximize their internet use as they grow. Limiting their internet access is similar
to restricting their ability to communicate with the rest of the world. Teenagers
are spending so many hours a week online, and it is affecting us in multiple
ways. It results in us getting less of the things we need most. There can be
deeper problems within us by using too much social media. Finally, we need
better time management because we spend too much time on social media.
Social media helps to strengthen our relationships, which is a good thing.
Teenagers should be given limited time for a variety of reasons.
