Facebook Addiction

#Hahaa...ini juga lagi2 PR les bahasa Inggris saya, penuh cacat memang, tapi sekali lagi, terharulah karena saya mau menulisnya dengn ikhlas dan tidak serius...:))



“Facebook addicted, heh...?” I was suprised when my English mentor, Tino, said that word. At that time I thinking about his word, of course I wanna know how about my position. Am I a facebook addicted or not? And how about your position? But that is not our point for this time, because that is will be my personal secret only...hehe.

After the class, I’m still thinking about that. And Tino’s word succes make me looking for something like ‘what is Facebook effect in our real live’? Then I ask to my second teacher when I’m at home, Mr. Google. Mr. Google always help me a lot. He give me much article about Facebook effect. For a while I take an easy conclusion that Facebook is not always in positif form.

I find The Daily Mail report that said, facebook addicted or another site like it, is harmful for healthy because it triggers someone to isolate themselves. The increasing isolation of self can change the ways our genes work, confusing the immune responses, hormone levels, arterial function, and destroy mental performance. Wow! I was surprised, I dont know it before.

That article also said, a relationship will be shallow, each personal don’t like to attend social gathering and avoid meeting with friends or family and social activities. They prefer stay on their computer or mobile phone, and they afraid ‘be separated’ with it. This attitude will made the Facebooker difficult when they communicate face-to-face. And this behaviour may increase the risk of serious health, such as cancer, stroke, heart desease and dementia, that is what Dr Aric Sigman said in The Biologist, the journal was released by The Institute of Biology.

According to him, the electronic media also slowly destroys the ability of children and young adults to learn social skills and body language. It make Dr Sigman worry about this problem. Social networking sites dont become a tool that can improve the quality of our life, but rather a tool that makes us the wrong direction.

That’s it. At the end, you have your personal decision, be smart.
