Nowadays, many people believe that using social networks is obligatory for the young generation. However, not all people think the same way.

In my opinion, social media is of great importance for teens. Firstly, they can communicate with friends who are far away from them. By using the Internet, we have the opportunity to stay in touch with people from the whole world. Secondly, social media helps teenagers to express themselves. In other words, they can create blogs, web sites, accounts where they can share photos, thoughts etc.

Nevertheless, not all people share my point of view. They assume that social media is just a waste of time which does not give any benefits.
