Dear Editor,
I am writing to
express my point of view of the overuse of online social networking site.
Nowadays, having
Internet access at home is a very common thing. Many people can own a computer
at home. Also, because of the improvement in technology, it brings a lot of
convenience and efficiency to users. For example, we can find a lot of
different information around the world by searching the Internet. We can find
news that happened in different countries. Also, we can talk and share new
things to our family member who live in another country by using Skype.
In addition,
overusing the networking site will waste our time because we spend most of the
time on it. On the other hand, we will only have less time on our parents to
figure out our problem on study or social life. It will cause direct arguments.
I think parents
should have more outdoor activities with their children, to sidetrack their
mind.
Finally, school
will be a better place to teach students to stop overusing computer, because
student learn things there, so I think teachers should ogranise some activities
or talks on telling the disadvantages of the overuse of doing other things like
homework or projects, etc. So I think we should have a time management to
balance the time on using computer and daily work. Having a timetable, we can
manage your time on using computer in a more specific way, so that we will not
spend too much time on using the network in an uncontrolled way.
In addition,
overusing the Internet will destroy your relationship with friends and family
members. It is because we spend most of the time using the net, we will have no
time on building relationship with them.
In short, we
should stop students on overusing networking site, because it will lead a big
problem in our society. It is education that we need to foster this belief
within our society.
Yours faithfully,
Chris Wong
