Today i read a post called Parent and Internet Using Teens. This post talks about how teens are being affected by using the internet to much. Parents need to monitor how much time children are spending on the internet. To much time on the internet can become addicting and eventually be all they do. Their are so many other ways to interact, the internet should not be used as a main source to do that.

A lot of parents do not realize how much time there child is spending on the internet. This needs to change. Even though the internet has a lot of useful qualities, their are also sites that can corrupt someone. Parents just need to watch and limit the time teens are allowed on the computer. Why sit at home on the computer when you can get out and interact with actual people?

Computers are useful, but to much use is harmful. The internet is huge, there are few things that you can't do or access on the internet these days. Kids especially need to realize this, they also need to realize that its not the end of the world if they can't always be on the computer. Their are so many other things to do and we don't need to spend so much time on the internet. Even though it has its down sides, using it in classrooms and for work is an excellent way of learning.
