This article explains how much we today in society text, facebook, or instagram, and its pretty terrible! Its shocking that parents don't even pay attention to what their children are looking at, or maybe even posting. They think it will go away an they wont have to worry about it. This article explains the certain things that go on about social networking, how they have delete options if something shouldn't be on the web, or shortcuts to keep from getting caught. As young adults we have to power to do whatever we want, but also have to realize that we have to watch we say, we might be growing but we have to watch what we post because it can be tracked. Teenage girls text and post things way more then boys. New technologies always provokes more panic, especially for parents. They worry for their children, well at least some parents do, other parents are just like, I don't care they can do what they want. But let them get in some trouble then, all concerning comes out.

Social Media is Making you Stupid
This title is great! This article is basically telling people how dumb we can be behind social media and how much trouble we can get into. It actually makes us dumber as a society because we depend on social media so much to express our thoughts and how we feel about certain things. Its actually messing with analytic powers that mess with you like unused muscles. When you don't use your muscles for awhile and you go and workout you are so sore and it hurts because your body hasn't been exposed to those muscles in while. This article was nice sweet and simple and got straight to the point, don't waste your time on worthless things and wasteful energy. Social media isn't always good, it could definitely upset you and cause you to become revengeful. Social Networking can cause you to become very hostile and want to ruin anybody who has said something bad about you.

I think there is some truth to social media possibly making people stupid. But I think that their research should be based more on just the fact that people will be copy cats.
