pictures . It is a lot harder to feel
embarrassment over the internet than

their feelings on sites like Facebook.

Addiction
The most common disadvantage of
social networking sites is addiction.
Often users of these sites spend hours
using these sites and it harms their
performance in other fields. It causes
mental health problems and sometimes
it harms their body too..
Reduction In Real Human Contact
The more time the students spend on
social networking sites, the less time
they will spend socializing in person
with others. This reduces their
communication skills.
Poor Grammar And Net Speak
Many folks do not bother with correct
spelling or grammar and resort to the
abbreviations and net speak that can
drive others crazy.

Having strong password.

social sites.
Make less use of social networking.
