Hi everyone,

My name is John, and recently, I have read about the harmful effects of excessive streaming on teenagers lately. I genuinely believe that this is a problem that needs to be addressed urgently. studies have shown that excessive streaming can indeed lead to a range of negative consequences.

Firstly, there's the issue of sleep. When teenagers binge-watch shows late into the night (usually Fridays), it can seriously disrupt their sleep patterns. Lack of sleep can lead to problems like irritability, decreased concentration, and even lower academic performance. It is not always a matter of better time management; sometimes, the allure of binge-watching can be overwhelming.

Furthermore, the issue extends beyond time management. Excessive streaming can also lead to social isolation. When kids spend all their free time in front of screens, they're missing out on real-world social interactions and the opportunity to build genuine friendships. This can affect their social development and well-being.

To address these concerns, we need to encourage a healthy balance. Parents and guardians should set reasonable limits on screen time, promote engagement in other activities like sports and hobbies, and engage in open conversations about the content their teenagers are watching. It is about finding a middle ground where streaming remains a form of entertainment but not at the expense of their overall well-being.

In conclusion, it is crucial to ensure that streaming remains a form of entertainment rather than becoming a harmful addiction that negatively impacts teenagers' physical and social lives.

"Hello everyone,

my name is helen and I would like to share my views on streaming.I understand John's concerns about excessive streaming among teenagers, but I believe there are other points to consider.

Firstly, regarding sleep patterns, I agree that binge-watching late into the night can disrupt sleep. However, it's not a one-size-fits-all situation. Many teenagers, including myself, can manage our time effectively, ensuring we get enough sleep and still enjoy streaming as a form of entertainment.

As for social isolation, I don't think streaming necessarily leads to it. Personally, I've used streaming platforms to connect with friends. We watch shows or play games together online, which actually enhances our social interactions. It's not just about the screens; it's about how we use them.

I agree with John's point about encouraging a healthy balance. Parents and guardians should certainly guide us in setting limits on screen time and promoting other activities. But it's also about trusting us to make responsible choices. Streaming can be a valuable source of learning and entertainment (youtube, is great for revising) when used responsibly, and it doesn't have to be an addictive behaviour.

In conclusion, while John's concerns are valid, it's important to acknowledge that responsible streaming habits can coexist with other activities in a teenager's life. It's all about finding that balance and making informed choices.

My name is Oliver, Oliver hills, and today i shall be giving my response to John and Helen's thoughts on streaming as best I can (since this was hard for me to write), I have quite a few things to say about both of these.

So for starters i support John's idea of people staying awake at night while watching Netflix is bad for their health, mainly their eyes and sleep. Teenagers need their sleep in order to wake up fresh in the morning and get to work, so them constantly watching Netflix at night time is a bad idea.

However on the other hand I also support Helen's speech about this situation. Because John states how parents should stop their children from watching Netflix during the night. but Helen says that the teenagers themselves should also know better than to just stupidly get up and watch Netflix or anything else during the night.

It isn't always our parents' jobs to ensure we're asleep, we got to take responsibility for our actions and do the right thing.

I have my own opinion on these, I honestly agree that Netflix is bad for us and should be banned from use. Especially at night time, just to make sure people get to sleep and awake on time.

If we don't get any sleep, we won't be able to function properly during the day and get any work or anything in general done, so in all honestly I agree with both John and Helen equally for their given points.

Do you all seriously think you're going to be successful in the future if you're just slacking off all the time because of some silly and addicting company?, obviously not. -_-

Hi everyone, 

My name is Ben, I want to share my opinions on this topic. 

First, I agree with John that there is an issue of sleep, many people including me have binge-watched shows late at night into the early morning. Sometimes I have stayed up late onto the next day because I was watching something. This issue needs to be fixed because often you’ll end up tired when waking up due to the lack of sleep from the late hours. This can affect a lot of things like how efficiently you work and your mental health. 

Additionally, I agree with Helen’s point of streaming can help you connect with friends and others alike. Personally, I have spoken about shows my friends should watch, such as The Boys, Stranger Things and Invincible; to shows we both enjoy or hate. What shows do you talk about with your friends? As of 2023, There have been 1.8 billion active subscriptions to streaming, that is a lot of people to potentially talk to about your favourite show or movie. 

Overall, I think there are more positives to streaming than negatives, although if not properly managed it can lead to late nights and improper sleep, it’s also not just streaming that has that issue, you can get caught up late doing anything. 

My name is Hannah, and today i'm going to share my views on streaming.

John,I agree on teenages getting a lack a sleep due to streaming.

Hi everyone,

My name is Dayo, i have read both John's and Helen's post about streaming, all those i do agree about some of the things that both of them have said, but i agree more with Helen.

I would like to add on with my opinions, I agree with John is the part where he said that streaming could seriously disturb the sleeping pattern. From experiencing this myself i will have to agree with this, on Fridays and Saturday i would stay up till a very late time where i would be watching anime or playing then on Sunday i would struggle to sleep.

My opinion on Helen is that part where she said that streaming could also be a social activity. When i am at home with my girlfriend i would stream my YouTube watch later list and watch what's inside of it with her, it brings up together.

Now my overall opinion is that streaming can be a fun,joyful social experience, or a nice fun solo experience.

Hi everyone,

My name is Michael, today I am going to discuss the harmful effects of excessive streaming on teenagers lately and the negative effects on streaming as well.

Firstly, I agree with John streaming effects sleep due to young teenagers binge-watch shows at night time and effects their sleep. This also relates to myself as a young person I watch Twitch at night and it affects my sleeping pattern, I usually get back home around 5 in the afternoon and I spend my time watching a stream like maybe like 7 hours or more. Even though I am excuses I still stay up to watch my favourite streamer to see the drama.

Secondly, I agree with Helen streaming you can connect with friends, I have made friends through streaming on PS 4 we play games together and we communicate about video games and life. It is very easy to talk to friends online you don't need to waste money on going out. Furthermore you can make an income in streaming.

In my opinion overall think streaming has more positive than negative, since streaming has become big more crime rates have gone down. And I have used streaming to market my product I have gained thousands of pounds over the month.

used

My name is Suzanne, and today I am going to talk about the positive and negative of streaming.

I disagree with John because I personally feel like it's their own choice to stay up at night. We are all responsible for our own actions and lives especially over the age of 16 since we are all decision making. So, whoever it chooses to impact it's their own fault not their parents. Even though, I disagree with John about teenagers taking responsibility for their actions it's the parents fault for not limiting their screen time.

Firstly, I agree with John saying that streaming

My name is Harry, I am going to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of streaming.

Firstly, lets get into the advantages streaming is an very popular platform to watch shows on. I agree with Helen on talking to different people and connect with friends on the platform. Example TikTok live, on TikTok live you are able to talk to other TikTokers or friends and speak about different events in each other's life .Even though it is a free app it can be very distracting while trying to sleep.

My name is Mary Lou and I am going to talk about how streaming is bad about our sleep and how it is also positive for some people to make friends.

Firstly, I agree with John, because in away streaming can be affected by losing lack of sleep. Also to some extent I disagree with John, as I think teenagers can manage them own time.

Our name is Tom and Jerry and today we are talking about the positives or negatives of streaming

Firstly we agree with John's statement to some extent when he mentions about teenagers when he says issue with sleep because of binge watching TV shows and movies can end in a cliff-hanger making us want to stay up longer to watch what happens next.

My name is Karen, I would like to share my opinion on the topic of the positives and negatives of social media.

First, I agree with john that there is a lack of sleep due to people binge watching shows such as vampire diaries and Top Boy. Even though we have watched the whole series of vampire diaries i would still watch it all over again but its due to

I'm here to give my opinion on John and Helen's views on different streaming platforms, going through the negatives and positives.

Firstly, I do see where John is coming from where is states "there the issue of sleep" as when it is late at night you sometimes get into a film and end up binge watching TV till late in the night.maybe even till morning, Furthermore, can lead to sleep deprivation in teens causing them maybe to lack in there education as they might go to school and be extremely tired.

But then again I see where Helen comes from where she says "As for social isolation, I don't think it necessarily leads to it." due to the fact that around 70% of the world's population use some form of a streaming platform whether it is games, TV or YouTube.With my experience i use games to socialise with my friends, watching Netflix and looking through Tik Tok.

To be honest i believe there are many more positives with using forms of streaming such as having fun with your friends, socialising and making new friends and many more exciting activities online, is streaming really as bad as everyone says?

In conclusion I think that people shouldn't have such negative views(usually older generations) as it can also be some people's way of relaxing and comfort for them.

My name is Mohamed, I recently read about the harmful effects of excessive streaming about teenagers. i personally believe that this is a problem that needs to be addressed urgently. Also streaming can indeed lead to range of negative consequences.

Additionally, i agree with Helens

point of streaming can help you connect family and friends.

However i think there are more negative to streaming than positives.

Hello everyone,

My name is Maria and I would like to talk about what I think about John and Helen's opinion, I will even give my point of view if I agree or disagree.

I understand what John means about the excess of stress among people but it is more common among adolescents and children but we must also see the positive points.

Firstly, I agree with John since it is true that staying up so many hours at night can disturb sleep since the brain does not rest, but it is not the only situation that disturbs everyone. Some teenagers do not have the will to leave a technological device behind to be able to do their home or even school activities such as homework and it is something that for some young people they do not have the will to leave the phone aside and go do something else.

Secondly, I agree with Helen on her opinion on making friends. I think that streaming serves to distract teenagers It's even something entertaining that you can watch with friends or with family and pass a good time with laughter, nowadays social networks serve more to communicate and around 80% of the people use streaming platform or others like TV or YouTube

In conclusion, I think that our parents should teach us to control the limits and divide our time from childhood; parents should teach them that when they are teenagers it will not be a problem, there are still teenagers who can limit their times little by little, but they can also see technology as a means of learning since they can learn many things by watching videos or they can find information necessary to learn.

Hi everyone,

My name is Jaydan and today I will be talking about sharing my views on streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John when said teenagers are getting lack of sleep where it can lead to problems like irritability, decreased concentration, and even lower academic performance. Furthermore, it led to being last to college and 50% of people complan about lack of sleep.

I agree with Helen's point of streaming, can help you connect with friends. Which they watch shows or play games together online.

Hi everyone,

My name is RiRi, and today i will be discussing my opinion on streaming, along with discussing some of John and Helen's opinions.

Firstly, I agree with John because sleep is very important to teenagers. 9 in 10 teenagers complain about being tierd due to the fact of staying up late. Furthermore that will have a long term afect on your mental health.

Firstly, I agree with John with people having no sleep after doing streaming. This causes many effects on the human body when done excessive streaming i genuinely

recommend this problem needs to be urgently looked into. For example i've been in situations when i have been up stress,anxious and paranoid about having friends,family and acquaintance.

Secondly, I agree with Helen's point about staying up all night to do streaming with new people all around the world. 200million people use consoles like Xbox,Ps4 and Ps5 to interact

I am here to speak about John's and Helen's statement on streaming. I will also give my overall opinion on them.

Firstly, I will speak about John's view on streaming, John first states that people that stream cause teenagers to stay up late and ruin their sleep schedule, I personally agree with this statement purely be; I am aware of many people that have been effected by streaming late and sleepless nights, their are many streamers that stream all night and cause people kids and teens that have things to do in the morning discomfort in the morning and bad consideration.

Secondly, I will discuss my view on whether i agree or disagree with Helen's numerous statements on isolation, I personally agree with Helen; she understands that teenagers should be more responsible with there time; need to know when to limit the amount of social contact they make they should know when the limit is for

My name is Beni , I would like to share my opinion about the negative and positive view about the streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John,when teenagers binge -watch shows late into the night (usually Friday,Saturday and Sunday) Staying up late , can grievously destroy concentration in class . Because I can become unpleasant towards the people around me at school or at home , for example : answering badly, shouting all the time , This might affects my reasoning and might affect my grades.

Secondly, I also agree with Helen's opinion that streaming platforms are a good way to connect with friends. Do you think that without streaming people would be able to make friends due to social isolation?

Yes, because if people are stuck at home, they don't have the possibility to go out, it's a good idea to make friends on social networks and to be connected with people from around the whole through social networks (TikTok, Facebook and Twitter) I have made 10 000 friends on Tiktok using the streaming plate form.

In conclusion, I think that in these , parents must take responsibility in managing their children's time.schedules, times for other activities.

Things that have experience in the same situation is that Show getting into a show late

In the night Which you really

want to watch it can attract

you into not want you to stop watching the movie or show.

I also agree with Helen is well is because Parents and guardians should take there's kids mobile So they can sleep better and to get more sleep so there can

wake up in the morning feeling good about them self.

my experience dealing with this is let my mum just take my phone because when my mum take’s My Phone away i can get more steep and Make me not want to go on TikTok or on to Snapchat to talk to my Friends about anything , some facts that I have searched up is that,The National Sleep Foundation recommends that children ages five to 12 get 10 -11 hours of sleep a night. (Teenagers need about 9 hours, but studies suggest only 15% of them get it.) and students that don’t get perfect sleep are 73%. And the students that stay on the phone It found that only 30 percent of students sleep at least eight hours a night - the average requirement for young adults. On weeknights, 20 percent of students stay up all night at least once a month and 35 percent stay up until 3 a.m. at least once a week.

My name is Tia and i'm very interested in this conversation and i wanted to add my opinion.

Firstly, I agree with John when he talks about how binge watching can seriously disarrange your sleep pattern and lack of sleep can cause problems like irritability and lack of attentiveness. Most of time its a problem for me because whenever I lose sleep I become aggravated and I tend to day dream.

In addition I also agree with Helen when she states that "As for social isolation it doesn't lead to it". Me personally when I watch shows i'm not isolated I have company around me sometimes .

However I also disagree with Helen when she says "As for social isolation it doesn't lead to it". It can be because when i'm watching shows i'm in my room isolated but to avoid this take breaks.

In conclusion, i think streaming can have a positive effect because you can learn and be social.However it can be negative because of the dangers due to interacting with people you don't know

Firstly, I am agree with John that he says the when teenagers binge watching movies late into night this is seriously distract them from sleep. when know that people especially teenager who stream content at bedtime take longer to fall asleep and the quality of their sleep is reduced then they can't wake up in the morning to go to school. if they didn't sleep well at night this also affects their mental health.

Secondly, Helen says that streaming can help you connect with friends and others I am agree with that because I am watch shows with my friends sometimes and we can play game together online even she living from me like one of the game Ludo that we can play online with our friends we can speak on microphone as well which is really good and I like it. Around 7.4K people are płay Ludo game.

At the one point that Helen says that teenagers can manage their time which is I am not agree with that because nowadays the best fun for teenagers is using phone and watching movie or something else but they are so much busy in their phone even some of them busy on the phone during the eating so how they can manage their time?

In conclusion I have to say streaming and watching Netflix is good some people can learn something but the best thing we have to do to manage our time and do not wąsate all our on Netflix and watching.

My name is Kieran and today I am talking about my views on streaming. Both John and Helen have made solid and valid points but i would like to contribute by sharing my views on streaming.

I agree with John when he said streaming can damage teenagers sleep patterns as this has happened to me, during GCSE exams i would often stay up late due to stress and also due to watching a new series on Netflix and I would find myself watching a new episode and it would be close to 1-2 o'clock in the morning. One of the main reasons as to why teenagers stay up late watching Netflix or other streaming services is because it is relaxing and enjoyable.

I also agree with what Helen says when she says that online gaming is good and it helps with connecting friends. This has happened to me many times when I get in from college and i end up playing online games with my friends sometimes until the early hours of the morning. This has helped me become closer with my friends as we end up playing for so long and having so much fun.

I would say that both John and Helen use negatives but they also use positives. I would say that there are both ups and downs of streaming services such as Netflix and Disney plus. Some of the negatives that they have included it can destroy sleep patterns. I would say that John has used more negatives than positives whereas, Helen has used more positives.

Overall 73% of teenagers have said that streaming benefits them. Does it benefit you?

My name is Leonidas and i will be sharing my views on streaming.

Firstly with Johns view i agree that teenagers get lack of sleep due to staying up all night watching Netflix, and whatever other streaming platform there on sometimes i have stayed up watching some shows and even when I finish a show i carry on looking for more things to watch and it has effected my sleep schedule and even when i do get alot of sleep the next day i still feel tired and weak.

But i also agree with Helen at the same time because some teenagers out there can manage there time schedule and not be up so late watching Netflix and getting lack of sleep. they can manage there times by setting a screen time setting and it helps with sleep patterns and getting into a routine.

My name is Luis and today I will be taking about my opinion of my view of streaming.

I agree with John cause it is true that there are teenagers that have lack of sleep cause of how much time they spend watching movies or series because they can get attached and binge watch it for hours and hours until they finish it after when they try to sleep they over sleep and get late to collage or school.

I agree with Helen its true as well cause by playing online or just social media you can connect with family and friends from far places or even when you have an emergancy you can just call some one but its bad as well cause that can effect your sleep if your talking with someone on your phone for a long time and its bad as well cause there are hackers and people trying to scam you or anyone you know.

Hi my name is Des'ree, and previously I have been doing my research on the damage that screen time and streaming services can have on young people. This is a big problem in this generation and in the nation. It can cause sleep disorders, depression, and anxiety.

Firstly, I agree with John because sometimes binge-watching can disrupt your sleep. It is also to be belived that binge-watching 80% can make you sleep-deprived as it can make you more tired.

Next, I agree with Helen because you can also bring around your

My name is Laryssa, I would like to share my opinions and some experience. I understand and I agree with John that we need to encourage a healthy balance. I belive that all teenagers needs to have some limits with screens.

Firstly, There's some issues to be on the screens to many times. Personally in my home I have some rules, example: hang out my phone at 9pm or can not have on my phone when I'm eating. I'v learned that when i spend to many times on my phone, I get distracted more easily and make me not focus in what I have to do.

Additionally, I understand what Helen said. Streaming can be a valuable source of learning. At least 20% of schools in the world use streaming in their lessons. Teachers have changed their way to give homework. In the way I see, do things online, watch lessons from home is being helpfull.

Furthermore, Screen can have positive things that can really help but also have their negatives. Does the internet really interrupt our minds?

My name is Megan, I want to express my opinions on Today's topic. I believe that there is an issue with streaming.

Firstly, I agree with johns point about the issue with sleep as 80.6% identified themselves as a binge watcher, around 32.6% have poor sleep quality associated with binge watching. This is not a good habit to have as this can have an impact on your brain functioning to remember certain stuff,regulate emotion and attention and even have an impact on your ability to be able to go outside and communicate with other people.

Additionally, I agree with Helen's point of being able to connect with friends and family by being able to watch shows/movies without even being together in the same room. Personally, This for me is a great way to be able to stay connected to friends and family even if I don't live near them. As of 2023, There have been around 1.8 billion active subscriptions to screaming services.

Overall, i think there are lots of positives to streaming then negatives, although there are a few negatives that if not handled with could lead to a harmful addiction to steaming and you should set time where you don't watch any online shows/ movies and take sometime into the real world outside.

Firstly, I would say that I agree with john about how parents should teach a time limit for their children for streaming perpuses it would help them learn to stick to a limit so they wouldn't get stuck in a loop of binge watching and waste there time.

Secondly, I would would like to agree with Helen about teenagers and there sleep patterns many teenagers will not ruin their sleep schedual over watching Netflix while also having a good enough time schedual.

My name is Lamar and i have just heard John and Helen conversation about streaming i agree with john because when John said "when teenagers binge-watch shows late into the night it can seriously disrupt their sleep patterns" i could understand what he means because back in year 11 i was on Netflix every-night and i would never revise because i was Netflix and i would go bed very late but on the other hand i also have to agree with Helen because she said "many teenagers, including my self, can manage our time effectively our time effectively, ensuring we get enough sleep and still enjoy streaming as a form of entertainment" i can understand this point as well because when i would come home from school i would go right on Netflix and i would go sleep every late during GCSE times but i would wake up at 6 or 7 o`clock with a lot of energy everyday this concise that streaming can cause you to stay up all night you might not wake up in time to go school or work but if your lucky you can wake up in time for work or school.

I agree with Hellen because we both understand the concequences of streaming that John has mentioned but at the same time we want people to be aware that they cannot put all the blame on streaming it is also up to people to have self control and learn how to used their time correctly without becoming addicted to the entretainment that this causes.

do you want to be a slave of the internet?

People have to understand that there is a life behind the screens

Hi everyone,

My name is Rafiatou and I would like to share my views on this topic.

Firstly, I agree with Helen that binge-watching late into the night can disrupt sleep and this is because some teenagers that does stay up to late at night never gets time to concentrate with their study at it's affect their mental health causing them to not concentrate enough with their study.

Why do students have to stay up late?

At least 80% of students feel very tired in the morning after staying up late at night to watch movies or Netflix for example

Hello everyone,

My name is Ben, and i will give thoughts of John and Helen's comments on streaming and give my own thoughts as well.

Firstly, i would like to agree with John about when most teenagers stay up late at night binge-watching a show on a streaming platform, whilst also ruining their sleep patterns.

Secondly, i agree with Helen that streaming can let you connect with friends and grows our social life significantly. Also i agree with Helen about the majority of teenagers who can effectively manage their time, and can ensure they get enough sleep.

First I don't fully agree with john, but I do agree about streaming yes young people do stay up and disrupt their sleep patterns but I also understand why people stay up because like me and many other people we have go work in till the night so we don't have time watch our favourite show or play game so people stay up the night to enjoy there show or game.

I would like to say I disagree with some of john statement first I don't believe that the it not all ways the the parnet fault.

My name is , and today i am going to share my views on the negative and positives on streaming.

Firstly, i agree with john that there is an issue with sleep as it disrupts the flow of sleeping patterns. despite the fact that most people, it can cause tiredness, lower concentration and a lower academic performance.

Secondly, i also agree with Helen as sleeping problems occur during binge watching on a Friday night

Hello everyone,

I am here today to give my opinion on streaming. Yesterday I read a discussion online between two people about their opinions on streaming. Thought that I could add my own ideas about the topic.

Starting with why young people love streaming so much; I feel that it may cause problems in their education, socially and their work life. As I have read from John " When teenagers binge-watch shows late into the night, it seriously disrupts their sleep patterns." Meaning that they will most likely not focus when in lessons or unable to interact with friends or family. From my personal experience it can leave you quite "cranky", and easy to upset in most cases. would you want this to happen to yourself?

On the Other hand there are people (such as Helen) who say that streaming can be a great way of connecting with others through a common interest. You could be talking about the latest episodes of a new series or have a conversation about your favourite part of a movie. It sounds all well and good but I feel that can cause more of a problem than something positive. A person may be left out of a conversation; leading them to streaming late into the night and causing them to lose 3-6 hours of sleep each day, which could make them end up missing important events.

In the end streaming is just too much of a problem for me and others. People losing multiple hours of sleep, entering work or school feeling both sluggish and adjudicated.

I hope this gave you a better idea of why steaming is bad and what effect it can have cause to you or other people.

My name is Harry and today I am going to give my opinions on streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John's point that streaming causes a lack of sleep. I agree with this as I have personally spent hours and hours at night watching TV shows which made me exhausted for School the following morning.

Secondly, I agree with Helen's point that streaming can make you need friends. I have met people online that i have become friends with in real life, which shows that it can do the opposite of socially isolating you.

Overall, I personally think there are more positives than negatives to streaming

My name is Josh and today I shall be giving my response to John and Helen's opinions on streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John on the issue with sleep I can Personally agree with John's statement as I have had trouble sleeping when watching Netflix,Youtube This can make you bad at work and school. Although this happens to me doesn't mean this will happen to everyone.

Secondly, as for social isolation people can become not very sociable if spent too much time in bed watching films. It can also be bad for the health of sitting in the same arm chair or laying in bed for multiple hours, Do you think that's okay?

I agree with Helen that you can make friends as millions of people do the same things which could lead to people having the same interests.

My opinion is that this is very unhealthy to rely on streaming platforms to have and a good time

My name is Amer and i would like to share my opinion about streaming .I agree with John's view because i saw a 60% of people struggling with this problem(streaming) and lead them to lack of sleeping and stress .

If lack of sleep and stress at work place is the mean issue that comes from the streaming and leads to low concentration in education and low mental health .

Although i agree with Helen's view about contact with a friend online platforms and play games and other stuff that help to build social skills, Is not just for watching it about how can i use it in my own benefit and my environment .

Does streaming lead to lack of sleeping ?

I think streaming lead to different problems like lack of sleeping.

Hi everyone,

My name is Taha and I am here to give my opinions on the positives and negatives of streaming.

Firstly, I believe that streaming websites have revolutionized entertainment consumption, offering convenience and vast libraries of content at our fingertips.however,their pervasive availability can lead to overindulgence,detracting from other activities and fostering sendentary lifestyles. I agree with John's opinion on sleep. Binge-watching can disrupt sleep patterns and social interactions, potentially leading to mental health issues like depression and anixiety.

My name is Nisha and today i will be talking about sharing my views on streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John's statement that streaming is bad. Watching too much streaming is bad for you where it can cause lack of sleep and cause problems like irritability, decreased concentration and even lower academic performance.

I would like to say that i also agree with Helen's statement about social isolation. where she talks about streaming is good to connect with friends and watch shows or play games together online . which makes a great social interaction .

My name is Michael and I will giving my opinion on Helen and John

Firstly,I agree with John that streaming platforms are a huge reason for the lack of sleep for lots of people myself included i have stayed up late into the morning to watch NBA games as i huge basketball fan and most games are really late. This is a issue because it means im gonna be tried the next day and it could also affect some peoples mental health.

I also agree with Helen that streaming is great way to make friends online by bonding over things you enjoy such as gaming and other things i personally i have made a tune of friends through gaming such with NBA 2K that i still play with to this day. so have so have you made friends online through the things you enjoy?

So overall I think streaming platforms are a great thing as people can chat and bond over the things they enjoy. Streaming platforms such as Twitch bring in hundreds of millions of people to streams with tons of categories from gaming to IRL there is something for everyone to enjoy and that the positives out way the negatives^.

Hi everyone,

My name is Daniel and I want to share my opinions on this topic and I was concerned on the negative effects it has on us.

Firstly, I agree with John's statement on the issue of sleep because looking at a screen for excessive amounts of time keeps your brain active. Even though you are tired it can keep you awake and mess around with your sleep pattern, making you drained, tired and exhausted. Furthermore, this have an impact on your education. Also, I agree with what John says about being socially isolated when you spend all your free time in front of screens and missing out on more productive activities.

Secondly i agree with Helen's statement on how you can manage time effectively so you can get enough sleep and still do the things you enjoy so having a routine will help you manage you time more efficient. Also i agree with what Helen said about watching shows and playing games doesn't always lead to social isolation and it can bring people together because you can meet people online there millions off people online which be a huge opportunity to make new friends while gaming playing the games you love to play.

Overall I think John and Helen make valid points on streaming and there's no right or wrong way about it its more on the readers point of view and there opinion on the dicussion of topic.

Hi everyone,

My name is Leyla and i am going to talk about the effect of streaming the negative about it as well as the positive about it .

Firstly, I agree about what John say about that streaming can take you out of the real work as well as isolating form the work as well as lack of sleep this are true you can lack of sleep because when i was watching a show or even on tiktok time goes really fast i stayed up until 4am or even 7am that I was going to sleep. As well scream time was over 18 h or even more.

Secondly I also agree what Helen say about that we do make friend online and that you can chat to your friend at anytime online on Instagram or Snapchat witch you can reach them out at any time.

Although I disagree about making friends online, it can also make you go through bulling or getting catfish which is very likely for it to happen. It is reported that 65% of people have gone through it.

Do you think streaming affects your sleep?

I think it does affect a lot on your sleep you can stay up all night with out you even knowing and you would not sleep as well as some teenager pull a all righter .

Is streaming affected to metal -health?

I think it does because you are looking at a screen over and over and if you get bullied online will make it worse and can defo make your mental health get worse.

Over all there is more negatives then posotives.

My name is Kyle, and I'm here to share my opinions on the topic. Reading both John and Helen's viewpoints, whilst I can identify with both points, I mostly side with Helen.

However, it cannot be denied that John also raises plenty of good points. For example, he brings up the issue of sleep, in that teenagers, if left unchecked, could binge-watch shows into the night, which would cut into their sleep.

But at the same time

Allow me to introduce myself as Shadrach, and it is my pleasure to present my unique perspective on the ongoing discussion between John and Helen regarding the impact of streaming on teenagers.

Firstly i'm compelled to consider John's arguement and i have to admit, i agree with johns speculation that streaming is leading to loneliness, attachment from reality and an overall lack of sleep, the reason why i agree with john is because netflix pumps out new, exiciting, easily bingable seasons with tons of series almost every week and it is proven that once you start one episode you would feel almost forced to finish out the rest of the season as its in our nature to always find out an answer; this means teenagers are finding themselves constantly glued to thier TV screens as netflix isnt going to maybe space out thier new content or introduce a time limit on thier app which will eventually lead to this current generation stuck indoors, on a never ending loop hopelessly watching and searching for new series to binge.

Hello everyone

First, I would like to say, I partially agree with John as streaming can have its negatives and positives.I do understand that excessive streaming can be harmful to adults, especially younger teens.there are a number of negatives that come from streaming like addiction, witch could result in late night binge-watching then lead to your sleep patterns being seriously disrupted, leading to a number of of other problems.However it can have a few benefits, witch are entertainment and

My name is Denys. Today I want to discuss streaming. There are some positive sides, and negative sides of streaming, and I'd like to give my overall opinion. So let's begin!

Firstly I want to speak about negative side of streaming. I agree with John about his opinion that streaming causes the issue of sleep, that links to tiredness. As a teenager I know that a lot of teenagers like to watch their favourite series or streaming into the early hours in the morning. It can cause tiredness, illness and bad behaviour.

In my experience, I have watched Youtube channels on weekend until early hours in the morning (sometime up to 4 am). However, I'm responsible because I do that only on holidays; I know I will not go anywhere, and can sleep.

Secondly, I agree with Helen's point that steaming you can make new friends in social media. 5 billion use social media a day, where they communicate. Social media give opportunities to make a lot of friends. I deem that it is good, because you are not in social isolation, in any case you have got the friends; you can play with them, watch something, and just speak.

Personally, when I came to the UK I only had friends in my country(Ukraine), and I communicated with them by using social media(I'm still doing that), I play games with them, watch something, and just speak. This helped me to feel more confident, and make new friends. Imagine how you would feel moving to a new country with no friends?

My overall opinion on streaming is that this has positives and negatives; you need to be self disciplined. If you are young (under 12 years old) your parents have to manage your social medias time, but if you are older, you have to manage your time by yourself, and do not spend on it more that 4 hours a day.

In the Future streaming is going to expand and will be used by more teenagers. With more advancements in technology like AI, Chat GP, technology could take over our lives!

My name is Ruby, I am going to talk about the positives and negatives of streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John as binge-watching shows can affect sleeping patterns. People can spend about 20-21 hours watching Netflix shows and having light exposure being on and you cant sleep.

secondly,

I've constructed my own view on the topic of streaming platforms and what damages it may and may not cause too our young people.

In John view he starts of with a main issue that binge watching programmes (usually on Fridays) "it can seriously disrupt their sleeping patterns " this can cause fatigue because of lack of sleep. This can be critical to a teenagers academic progression. John also argues that extended time on theses platforms may lead to self isolation and i agree that excessive stream time may lead you a stay from the real-world social interactions.

Helen argues that although they may be

My name is Sando and my opinion about the positive and negative about streaming

Firstly, I agree with john that streaming can affect your sleep. I hav e in the past my favourite series(Match Point) into the earlt hours of the morning.

by playing with friends and earning money

For negative Secondly I also agree that streaming can effect education in school and also your brain wont function properly

My name is Stefan, and i have recently read about streaming and how it can affect people's sleeps and negatively effect their lifetime.

Firstly, streaming has the effect of sleep and a lifetime that can be caused by streaming. Teenagers and adults sometimes have a serious lack of sleep and less social communication. Each time people keep streaming at home will affect their brain and your concentration. What will streaming affect in the future? The effect that can aim for head ed aches and also your body, that wont function that much.

I also agree with John, that streaming with friends and having fun everyday 5 times a week. However, it can also affect your friends that can anxiety, head aches, brain concentration. 75% of people that are streaming on Netflix or websites every night and their body becomes weakened but streaming with strangers can be great because you can communicate what streaming that they watch.

Secondly I also agree with Helen that less streaming is good and that it can be more useful for your lifetime with friends [Whats app, Instagram] that won't cause staying up all night streaming.

Overall I think that streaming is still negative around the world and popular it has become with so much shows and movies to watch.

I'm going to talk about my opinion about the positive and negative aspects of streaming

I disagree with johns opinion it has been shown that 75% of people go to streaming websites at night in my personal experience i have stayed awake all night streaming on the weakened and i was able to go out with my friend the next day.

Furthermore i disagree with johns point that streams will cause social isolation

do you think that people would have been

able to connect with their friends.

however i agree with the point that there should be parental controls set into place.

i agree with Helene opinion that perverts should set a time limit that permanents should set a time limit on streaming

I'm Georgia and I am writing to give my opinion on what John and Helen has said about streaming services and how they affect people.

Firstly

My name is David, and I would like to share my opinions on this topic.

Firstly, I agree with John because one of the negatives that he said is that streaming can seriously disrupt your sleeping pattern.

Which can affect their social development and well being and that they can miss out on real world social interactions which would make them miss out on their chance to build a genuine friendship. In the past I have experienced staying up at night watching different movies and TV shows on websites like ( Prime video, Netflix and Sky) which affected my health as well as gone so far to disrupt my sleeping patterns.

Secondly, I also agree with Helen because one of the positives she said is that you can make friends online and that you can contact friends online as well. Streaming, is not that bad as it is possible for us to keep contact with our friends on different online streaming platforms like (twitter, whats-app snap-chat and discord) where we can discuss different things like what we have seen online we can also talk about different games and play with each other which would help to enhance our social interactions as it is not all just about the screens but how we use them. In the past, I have also made many friends and kept in contact online with my real life friends and it has helped me enhance a better understanding of the word "friendship" and to also make my friendship bigger with others that I can feel like we have gone through the same feeling in life and we can also play games, chat which would allow us to get to know each other better and to also discuss things that we might find hard to handle but might be able to speak about each other.

However, I find that Helen and John are both correct about some of the points like the ones that I talked about. But I can also agree that we require things like (social media, streaming websites and technology) in our lives but we need to be able to manage ourselves with them and not to be addicted to it but to rely on ourselves and not the screens that we use.

My name is Calum and i'm going to be talking about my opinions of John and Helens conversation about late night streaming.

First things first I want to say that I agree with John. He has said that late night calls/texting, streaming online with friends and even watching movies/series late at night has a very big impact on sleep and the next morning. I think this because the next morning you might not be able to think straight and very easily forget things.

Secondly, I think that Helen has a very good point. Helen has spoken about it benefiting social interaction with friends/family. The reason why I agree is because some people work very hard like starting at eight in the morning and finishing at about six in the evening. By the time you've finished dinner and chores around the house it will be late by the time you join your mates online /a call or much more. However social interaction is important regardless of the time so maybe staying up late and missing your sleep can be a good thing to.

In my opinion I think staying up late to watch movies/series has many benefits for you. Staying up late losing you sleep may seem like a bad thing to lots of people but i think it doesn't matter as long as you get to do something you enjoy. However, I do think staying up late the night before school/college/work can be bad for you in the morning because you forget things very easily and are less able to think straight.

In conclusion I think overall there's more negatives than positives in these paragraphs. Everything John says is negative about lack of sleep where Helen disagrees and thinks it benefits social interaction with friends.

I agree that streaming causes problems to sleep as it makes you stay up all night. For example I stay up all night until 5am watching Netflix and I wake up tired for school. Lack of sleep can cause sleep deprivation for the nation, depression and anxiety.

Secondly I agree with Helen when she says that streaming can help you gain friendship online which is a form of communication for the nation such as Playstation and X-Box. I've made millions of friends while streaming so Helen does have a point.

In my opinion for the minion, streaming has a lot of benefits for young people especially the young people with social anxiety it helps you build friendships online while enjoying the game. Furthermore, you can also make money from streaming for or example MrBeast. MrBeast is worth 500 million just for streaming and making content on Youtube.

Firstly, i agree with John statement of streaming is bad. Watching too much streaming can cause lack of sleep and can cause problems like irritability, decreased concentration and heart disease and stroke.

Secondly, i also agree with the Helen side of streaming because streaming is a platform to make friends and socialize with people and allows you guys to connect

At the one point that Helen says that teenagers can manage their time which is I am not agree with that because nowadays the best fun for teenagers is using phone and watching movie or something else but they are so much busy in their phone even some of them busy on the phone during the eating so how they can manage their time?

Hi everyone

my name is tilly

I am here to discussion about john and helen debates on the problem with streaming

Firstly, I agree with John where he state about lack of sleep because people are staying up all night becasue most of the population stay up streaming or beinge watching which mean that they can be very tried for the thing that they have to do in daley life like school work or meeting.

For example I have stayed up watching for 5 hour and then the next day I fell asleep in a work meeting

Having lack of sleeep can lead to depresson and anxitey and sleep deeprevation.

Secondly, I agree with Helen that it help people comunicate with friends which actually enchance our soical interraction

for example I have made hundreds of friends online and most of these people I talk to everyday

I also agree with another point that Hellen made saying that it not just about the screen it is about how they use them for example You can watch show with your friends at the same time by streaming

people use consale like Xbox Playstion and nintendo switch to comunitate with everyone world wide

In my oppion, I personally think that there are more positive inflences of streaming the negatives factor of streaming

Firstly, t I agree with John's opinion that streaming (binge watching) can result to lack of sleep and lead to less concentration for example, I stayed up till 6am watching cobra kai and when i woke up late that afternoon and i felt so moody,very tired , and could not concentrate.

Secondly, i agree with Helen because she says you can socialise with friends on the streaming platform For example I was able to make thousands of friends online I have had a friend which looks like I have know him forever.

Finally, I agree that Streaming is good however, parents should encourge children to do other things

My name is Yusuf, I would like to share my views on streaming. Firstly, i agree with John that streaming can cause lack of sleep.Streaming all night is bad it can also harm other people, if you stream all night it can cause headaches and weakness. lack of concentration

Secondly, does streaming not help in social isolation I agree that streaming is a platform to make friends, For example, during the Covid I was able to make 100 friends on the streaming platform

Finally, I think streaming is good however, parents should set limitation screen time. furthermore activity should be encourage to young people.

Firstly, I agree with John because he is right. Nowadays, all teenagers use their phones all the time especially at night,which is really harmful. It disrupts their sleep,and when you don't have enough sleep this can affect your mental health. You can't concentrate at college and do your work. it is also terrible because when you spend too much time on your screen that damages your brain.

Secondly i think that Helen is also right,

streaming can lead to lack of sleep and this can affect our mental state, well being and low concentration furthermore i have stayed awake streaming on a Friday and I have felt tired weak and fatigued the next day.

I agree with Helen's opinion that steaming is a platform for social interaction. I have made 10,000 friends using this social platform to connect with friend.

(Disney plus, Netflix and paramount plus)

My own opinion although streaming is good teenagers should be encouraged to do other activity

conclusion:

In conclusion I would say kids should be allowed to stream however parents should set a time limit on what teenagers should be allowed to watch and how long they can watch it.

My name is Cameron I want to share my opinions on this topic of streaming.

Firstly, I agree with John that there is an issue of sleep,many people including me have stayed up binge watching shows like the last super bowl which started at 11:00 and finished at 3:00 in the morning but the worst thing about it is that i stayed up till 7:00 am watching more Netflix shows. This issue needs to be fixed because as 40% of scientist have proven that staying up late can cause a lack of concentration.

Secondly, I agree about Helen's point about that isolation so it wont affect your social life becuse some of your favourite shows you can talk to your friends about and can watch together but it will help you make more friends. But I have a personal experiance like where I work when the superbowl (Kansas City Chiefs vs PhIlidelfia Eagles was we got snacks and put on the game on a big tv and it made us closer together like family.

In conclusion streaming services do have a effect on sleep and so much more but if you can control how much you watch there is no problem with addiction to streaming services.

Firstly, I agree with John's opinion because streaming could affect people (especially teenagers) most of them waste time and night of sleep watching streaming, they also have social isolation, they missing out the real- world and the opportunity to do new friendships. For example if i stay up the all night watching netflix knowing that i have class the next day, i will wake up later.

However I also agree with Helena's opinion because there are other points to consider, because most people use the streaming plataforms to connect with friends (watching shows or play games), streaming could also help teenagers with leaning and entertamment. For example if the parents/guardians have some limits with streamings and don't exceeding the screen usage limit.

In my opinion i think both is correct at some point, because John is correct to don't agree with kids or teenagers spend all the time on streamings, However Helena is also correct when she said streamings could help people with learning and most people doesn't have any "real friends" ( same city or country) and that will be useful for people.

My name is Jake, I want to share my opinions on this topic.

Firstly, I agree with john that staying up late does make issues with your sleep patterns cause mostly 75% of teenagers stay up late either playing games or watching films on YouTube ,Netflix and other streaming stuff or both and it ends up disrupting sleep patterns which leads to waking up late then it turns into a cycle of you waking up late and going to sleep late i have a personal experience with this cycle almost always doing summer holiday staying up late and end up missing most of the day and end up staying up late cause i was not tired enough to go asleep.
