Connectivity with the strangers

Social media is specifically for the teenagers, who get so much involved with the strangers, and they make them their friends and develop relationships with them. These online relations are temporary and always become the cause of the destruction for many young boys and girls. Strangers are usually using them by their so-called friendship for their mean.

It, on the other hand, results very negatively; sometimes these strangers threat and molest the youngsters, which become the cause of suicidal deaths among teenagers.

Things are not personal

Reduce the charm of real contacts

Due to the social media, things have changed, the world is shrinking day by day, but the natural interaction with the friends, families, and relative have vanished from our lives. These social sites attract people because they can communicate with anyone, and it has created the bridge between the families and friends that did not exist before the intervention of social networking.

Loss of motivation

The use of social sites distracts students, and they only have the interest to use these sites for the whole day and enjoy there with their friends.  In the past students were motivated by the environment and people in their surroundings. Now the social sites have played a great role in the decrease in the academic performance of many students.
