ADAVNTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF CHATTING
Advantages of Internet chatting
· > You meet new
people
· >You exchange your
views about certain subjects
· >You can relax
because you don't have to see the person physically
· >If you are shy
this is a way of making friends
· > You can treat some
special friends you've met like pen pals, but you are chatting instead of writing
letters like they use to 20 years ago
Disadvantages of Internet Chatting
· >You just never
know whom you are talking too. It could be an older man who is a pervert and
acting out like he is young.
· >You may trust this
person and give out your full name; address; email addy; your phone/cell
number. This is very dangerous!
Tell me nothing when it comes to your identity.
· >You may think you
are falling in love with the person you are chatting with, but could live
thousands of miles away and long distance relationships seldom work out.
· >If you are shy you
are far more vulnerable to being hurt by someone on the Internet and may slip
up giving them too much information which they could use against you and cause
a myriad of problems for you.
· > Cyberstalking is
at it's peak especially among teens. This means a group of kids (just for the
heck of it) pick on one person and it's really getting out of control. There
are threatens (often the group of teens will act on their threats if they live
in the same area.)
· > Cyberbullying is
another problem. This is where one, two or more teens picks on another teen and
constantly calls them names. Being young and stupid they don't realize what
they have done and the suicide rate connected with this is going up in leaps
and bounds.
