Social media has been around for several years . Many have found it useful but recently adults have been saying that it is not good for the youth . But for me personally I do not agree. In my opinion social media is not only useful but important for young people.
First, social media is useful for communication. We, the youth, use it to communicate with each another. We can share ideas and opinions about specific topics through it. It can help spread information.
Second, social media can also encourage creativity. Whether it’s through photography, music or blogs, the youth can showcase and spread their creativity to others using social media. Social media platforms like Tiktok, Facebook or YouTube make it easy to share creativity. They allow users to share their abilities and talents.
Lastly, social media can also inform and educate the youth. It can give us information about what is happening in the world today which leads to the youth becoming more aware about the world around them. Social media can also provide access to educational videos.
While social media can be very helpful to the youth, I know that we should also be careful of its dangers such as cyberbullying and spreading false information.
In conclusion, the usage of social media has benefits such as education, information, the freedom to express creativity and communication. But there are also dangers like cyberbullying and misinformation.
