The impact that technology has had in teenagers life

Potential benefits of technology for teens

teens people love going online, for very good reason. By using the internet, they can:

easily access information to inform and educate themselves

maintain and develop supportive relationships

form their identities (through self-expression, learning and talking)

promote a sense of belonging and self-esteem through staying connected with friends and being involved in diverse communities.

Research shows that the things that help young people have a positive experience online are:

having a good understanding of the internet and how online media work (including things like privacy settings)

having the skills to critically understand, analyse and create content that adds value for themselves and others.

Potential risks for teenagers

Some risks associated with being online are:

Cyberbullying: This is when people use technology to embarrass, harass or bully someone. Cyberbullying can include posting mean or untrue statements, making fake online profiles intended to embarrass people, sharing embarrassing photos, and more.

Trolling: This is when people deliberately try to start arguments or to upset people on the internet, often causing considerable distress.

Isolation: Too much time spent online and using technology is time not spent face-to-face with family and friends, which can create barriers and contribute to a sense of isolation.

Inappropriate material: Teenagers posting inappropriate pictures or content online, or sharing such material with friends, may humiliate themselves or others.

Inappropriate relationships: Strangers or others may try to form inappropriate relationships with young people.

explanation:

his tongue, i believe, was bloody and hanging out of his mouth.

he looked as if he were hungry.

he has several wolf-like qualities; a gray coat, sharp claws and yellow fangs.

those eyes made me feel, dear reader, like the end was near.

as i reached for a stick, he moved to the other side of the hill.

panting and hungry, he looked at me, a defenseless human and he snarled.

well i said my prayers, however, he simply turned and limped off.
