Facebook:good or bad?

Like basically every teenager i log onto facebook just about everyday. But the question is "is it bad or good"?


In my opinion i think that facebook is a good thing, i think that it could be a negative affect on your life if you use it the wrong way. Its nice to keep in contact with those family members that you don't see often and keep in contact with friends after highschool is over with. And you can share videos and pictures with friends and family. Many people say that facebook is a negetive way of communication because studies have shown that regular facebook users would rather communicate on facebook then in person. I do admit that facebook is a major distraction from my homework. Its also annoying when you have that one person who posts status about every single thing that they did that day. My uncle is a perfect example of that kind of person "Today Robin and I went on our three mile jog and we are now making our traditional Friday night low carb pizzza with basil". Cyber bullying is also a major issue. Facebook is the cyber bullying playground. Teenagers so easily will post a negative comment on a picture or wall and not realize the damage that they did to that person. It also makes bullying easier because kids can hide behind a screen and not face the person they are bullying. Over all i think that facebook is a good thing, just don't be stupid and say or post pictures that you would want your mom to see.
