The addiction to Facebook – Is it good for us? Looking for the answer to this question, we found a great thought by some writer “Addiction of anything in one’s life is harmful.” Are you addicted to Facebook? Yes, is the answer for many of us that you will get if you truly evaluate yourself.
The applications & features provided by Facebook attracted people of almost every age and now the outcome of these features is that it became the necessity for us to use it a number of times in a day. Maybe the reason is different for different people. Now, we are used to or we can say we are addicted, is it good for us? Definitely, it is not at all good for us in one way or the other. We can say it is useful for us in some ways, like finding a job, getting in touch with someone who is far away from us, for giving us a break from work, enjoy some games and all.
Spending a number of hours of your day to day life in unnecessarily browsing on Facebook is not good. Facebook is meant to have fun, get together, have a small chat, getting updates from your friends or maybe finding a job. If you are spending a healthy span of your time on Facebook then you must get alert now and change your habit. It has been noticed from a survey that there are over one billion active users on Facebook and more than half of them access it through their mobile devices. This clearly depicts the people are so addicted to Facebook that they want it with them all day and night. You will be amazed to know a fact that there are over 12.5 million children on Facebook is under the age of 13, which clearly violating the site’s terms of use. What the hell a boy/girl of 13 years of age or under are required to do on Facebook. A part of advice from us is that,
“Do not use it excessively, it may harm you mentally, or may affect your health.”
Conclusion
