The use of social media has both negative and positive impacts on our youths today. In this paper, I aim to bring to light the impacts of social media specifically to the youth of this generation. These impacts are both positive and negative.
The positive impacts of social media on the youth today include making them up date on the events happening around the globe and also enables them network and stay connected with their fellow youths and friends without physical meetings. It bridges the gap between friends. social isolation can cause a number of effects such as physical, emotional, mental and psychological issues in these youths. This can in turn lead to depression, anxiety and many other problems. It also leads to misspelling of words and misuse of words and tenses through the use of short forms and abbreviations

Social media has impacted in students academic both negatively and positively. On facebook, there are trending videos of students doing imaginary stuff ways complicated then their respective age. Students are less productivity in terms of academic performance and this also has direct effect on the rate of unemployment in the country. There's need to see to this issue in educational sector before it gets out of hands.

Social media impacted youth negatively and positively in their social life academically. Academically so, youth is able to study through social media groups more especially in 2020/2021 during the covid period when everyone was to stay at home at home. At the same time they'd go beyond studies to circulate videos which are way far from their studies.

Use of social media have a positive and negative side to youth and students also.
The positive impact is that it makes youth to be update in an ongoing event or an event to happen in future.for student, it helps in term of getting video tutorial,or online lessons.
The bad side of it is that people use social medias in doing things which societies kick against it, it also takes student or youth attention away from what they are suppose to do when they engaged in media(time consumption)
