TEENAGERS nowadays spend most of their time on Facebook. Their morning is with Facebook and their evening is with Facebook.

This results in the lack of personality development and speaking skills.

I do not understand how reading about other people’s lives or wasting time looking at tons of pictures is time well spent. Facebook is a teenage fad and addiction. It is causing distress in families and ruining family relationships.

Facebook is wasting the precious time of youngsters, who should limit the use of Facebook and concentrate on real-life social activities.
