"Facebook depression"

The American Academy of Pediatrics mentioned that networking website like "Facebook" could cause dangers for children's mental health.


Social media sites have created a new phenomenon known as "Facebook depression", a new study proposes.


Report co-author Gwenn O'Keefe described the way of communicating in society is changing.

"Recently most teenagers take a contact with their friends by social media, rather than at tha mall or a friend's house.
A large part of this generation's social and emotional development is originating on the Internet and on cellephones.
Parents need to understand these technologies to relate to their children's online world, and comfortably parent in that world."



In addition, it is essential for parents to be conscious of how social media sites can affect children
and mind that the Internet is not always a healthy environment for kids.

There are many Internet problems....so, LOOK OUT!!!!!!
Don't be involved in the social media too much :p
