Social networking sites are disasters. Social networking sites are nothing more than tools for narcissists. Social networking sites are increasing in popularity but are really destroying natural and healthy interpersonal relationships and foster ignorance of the human condition. Take this example, recently two girls fell into a sewer and though they had their cells phones with them, didn't have the common sense to call for help, instead they just updated their Facebook pages until someone figured out they were in trouble and called help for them.
Definitely not, wasting our 'real lives.' This generation is becoming more and more addicted to the thing we call internet. Within the internet there are many components in which it is split up into. Social networking being one of the most popular among young adolescents. Cyber bullying occurs on this and it greatly affects children's studies and their school life , having students act as a different person online to who they are in person.
