Social working has its positives, considering it allows us to connect with friends and family in a matter of seconds. Although this is extremely useful, it is also destroying our ability to make real life conversations. People are attacked over the Inter, but do not say a word to each other in person. Social media is preventing us from standing up for ourselves the way we should be. Facebook limits our conversations that we have with people, which is why it is always better to strike up a conversation in person instead of through a puter screen. Social working destroys the true meaning of human interaction. Teens are finding new ways to make a living out of advertisements that they post on their social working pages. Social works allow them to make money without even getting up off the couch. Being out in the real world and working creates ways to municate and is a crucial part of life, but that will be destroyed if young teens think it is okay to just make money through social media. Social working makes things easier, but that does not always mean that it makes things better. Social working affects young lives and causes teens to grow up differently from how their older relatives have. They rely on their blogs and pages to municate with people, keep up with the latest trends and enjoy their separate little world. Social media has ruined how life should be: fun, adventurous and exciting. Instead, it has turned most teenagers into anti－ social couch potatoes. There needs to be a break from social working so young people can once again live a real life in the real world.
