“THE PROS AND CONS OF SOCIAL MEDIA”

Well there are a lot of positive & negative stuff about the social media. The things that I find positive about the social media such as Facebook & Twitter are that it helps you connect with your family and your loved ones. It also helps you find certain people that you want to know about. But you also got to be careful about the choices you make when you’re on any of these famous social media websites. Now the negative and kind of dangerous stuff about these websites is that there are bad people out there that could harm you and your family and we of course wouldn’t like that happening to us. So we got to be careful about who we are having a conversation with. And also the type of information we post on these kind of social media things. Because we might give information about where we live. There are a lot of bad & perverted old guys that be trying to get at young teenage girls. And sometimes sadly they end up getting kidnapped or even raped. Which I feel bad for those girls out there that are going through this. But the social media also depends on how the user is going to use it. And that really says a lot. Some people simply just don’t care & don’t know the risks. Until they see something some thing bad happening out there with other people or even there own close friends or family. And this can also be seeing, but dramatized in Television shows about the real world and what’s really going on out there and we just don’t really realize. Some people just are ignorants & just don’t care about the consequences that could happen to them in the future.
