  • Hook: talk about how you yourself is also a social media addict 
  • How much it harmed and distracted me from my education (especially in 7th grade and first semester in 8th)

Main Claim: Social media leaks various hazardous attributes to teenagers.

  1. Social media normalizes high standards and can cause people to be insecure.
  • celebrities/ heavy photoshop/makeup being used
  • comparing yourself to another
  • develop new insecurities that you never knew existed/ drops your self-esteem 
  1. Cyberbullying 
  • Death threats online
  • Easier for bullying to happen because it’s behind screen
  •  “Every 7 minutes a child is bullied. Unfortunately, intervention is rare, with an adult intervening in only four percent of cases, and a peer in 11 percent. An astonishing 85 percent of all cases of bullying are not addressed.” (ASPA 2021)
  • Add evidence about suicide rate casued by cyberbullying
  1. Distraction
  • Not only a distraction for education
  • Example: you see a story of your friends hanging out without you (you will continue to worry about that) 
  • Destroying sleep schedule (goes with the distraction for education) 
  • “Participants estimated using social media on average 2.2 h per day (SD = 2.3). The most frequently used social media platform4 was WhatsApp (86%), followed by Facebook (82%), YouTube (67%), Facebook Messenger (49%), and Instagram (39%). Half of the participants (51%) reported having some notifications from social media activated, whereas 28% received all possible notifications, and 9% reported disabling all notifications.” (Koessmeier 2021)
  • Obsess over likes



Conclusion: 
  • Claim how it is difficult to completely cut off all social medias, but we can reduce the usage of it during crucial times that require focus
    • Final exams
    • Sats
    • etc..
