As a Grade 8 student, Social Media affects my life by helping me in my studies and it helps me communicate with my classmates easier so that in case I was absent, I could catch up with the things i missed. Although Social Media helps in many ways, it can also be a distraction. Most of the time, when I arrive at home after school, I will usually check my social media accounts first which will lead to forgetting what I was supposed to do.
The presence of Social Media affects me as a daughter also has pros and cons. For example, I can always update my parents about the things I've been doing and they wouldn't be worrying since they know I am safe. However, Social Media can actually make us lose connection in terms of talking to each other face to face.

Too much of everything is not good. Like the internet, too much of it is not good. We should know when to use the internet and when not to. It shoudn't get in the way of our studies. It should not distract you and keep you away from doing the things you have to accomplish. Always remember to set your priorities. I agree with you, Cher. Most of the time, students often get carried away when using their social media accounts. Hence, forgetting to do their responsibilities. |

"I believe that social media is created to benefit its users and not intended to be destructive, but its impact to people is really dependent on how people use or abuse it." I agree with you Francine. I believe that the internet was created to benefit each and every one of us. It was not created to harm us and to hurt our feelings. It is where we express ourselves in a way that it would benefit others. Indeed, how it would affect people is based on how people use or abuse it. |

I agree with you Cher. We should always set our priorities and do the things we need to do before doing anything else. Internet may be one of the things that may hinder us from doing the things we need to but we should always remember that our priorities such as our studies should always come first before anything else. |

The presence of Social media as a daughter makes my character/characteristics change more in a negative way. It is because I am closely attached to the internet that I don't even bother to communicate with my family members even though we are in the same house. I agree with you. I've got to be honest but I admit that I do this but even though I do drop my gadgets and talk to my family, most of them are also just using their gadgets. |

As a grade 8 student, having social media accounts affect my life by distracting me and it makes me more exposed to strangers and now, they have access to your information which can be dangerous.

As a Grade 8 student, social media have a big impact on my life. The various programs and applications on the web today such as Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat allow me not only to communicate with people but also provide me with a venue to air my personal views and opinions on many things as well as to learn from others.
As the fastest means of communication nowadays, social media give me the opportunity to get in touch with my classmates and my teachers especially when there are assignments and projects. Social media also help me in research, for example, in comparing and contrasting opinions on certain subjects. I would say that social media have benefitted me more for they have made studying easier for me.

Knowing that these things could be possible in the future we should know that as grade 8 students we should be careful of what we put on the internet and how we even use it. One of the things that my peers is doing wrong, is basically "living" their "life" on social media. When the thing is we are selves are just temporary but the thought if us will live longer. So as we live we should focus on the things around us, on the people we have and the places we could go. If most people didnt have social media, you may have less friends, compared to your number of friends on Facebook, but you would actually value the time you spend with them because if there is social media you could simply just check their posts to see what's going on in their lives not even needing to communicate properly.
If not a lot of people used social media, there would be less crimes going on about murders that happen after a meet up, or getting tricked on the internet to spend lots of money. People fall for these things because they trust the internet, when sometimes the things you trust is just the thought of it.
Since we are from the digital age and social media is part of our lives we should know what are things we should put on the internet and the things we should do. Knowing now the our posts would still be there when we die, we shouldnt start fights, our send hate to others because when people check you account again they will remember you that way and I don't think anyone wants to be remembered by the way they act on the internet. We wont be able to delete all the posts we regret putting up, especialy when we are dead. Just like when youre living, you cant erase or delete mistakes you'll just end-up regretting making those decisions because then you wouldnt be able to do anything about it.
Now that we know about the things that will happen in the future we should act on it now. We should keep in mind the things that we could do and shoudlnt do on the internet.
