Negative Aspects of Social Media

Over the last couple of years social media has taken over our lives and as we progress with technological advancements we have become more and more attached to the media. Do you want to find out what the latest news is? Take a look on Instagram. Are you out of ideas for drawings? Take a look at Pinterest. Do you just want to create dances? Use TikTok. All these things are done thousands of times a day, as these days the majority of people can’t even have a normal conversation without looking at their phone. In this article I will be presenting to you a list of all the reasons why social media is bad.



3 Negative Aspects of Social Media

  • Fake News: Social media is informative at times, but we can’t believe everything we see. Many posts appear to be real and perfect but in reality the time spent behind the post is just unbelievable. This is why you should always double check any news you see on social media.


  • Created false expectations: If you see something online that is too good to be true you shouldn’t compare yourself to it, because it's probably not true.


  • Scams: One of the other biggest problems social media has are scams, there are so many scams and illegal sites people visit many times a day thinking they are real. Only after we share personal information does the site reveal the truth. Kids are the most likely to get in these situations due to their innocence.
