Those black screens...
Hi dollies!
Put your hand up if you check your phone at least twice a day… *everyone raises hands*.
I admit it, I am constantly checking my phone, whether it is a quick check for the time, or spending hours scrolling through social media, we all are attached to our little devices.
As a teenager, we are prone to looking at our phones on an average of 9 hours a day! I spend 9 hours sleeping, so that’s 18 hours spent up either sleeping or on a phone. I wouldn’t say I go on my phone for 9 hours, probably a lot less. However this proves that so many people are relying on their devices so much now.
Positives:
- Staying in contact with friends who you haven’t seen in a long time
- Learning new things and finding information
- Belonging to a community
- Escapism
- Finding a new talent
Negatives:
- More exposed to trolls and cyber bullies
- More sleep deprived
- Can cause addiction
- More exposed to inappropriate content e.g. violence and offensive language
- More exposed if allowing personal information to people.
These aren’t necessarily true and everybody uses their phones differently, I do and most of my family and friends use it differently too.
Be careful when using your phone and stay happy!
