Facebook became public in September of 2006, when it expanded its membership to any user 13 years and older instead of its exclusive University and High School members (History of Facebook, 2014). Twitter was created in 2006, but did not gain popularity until 2012 (Twitter, 2014).

Beginning with the anecdote of a frustrated teen, boyd starts off by putting forth the common idea that overuse of social media is seen by most, teens included, as an “addiction” and “…something that teens lack the capacity to maintain a healthy relationship with…” (79). However, boyd later states that this is better represented by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s term “flow” (80), or deep engagement.

According to a recent study conducted by Common Sense Media, teens spend about 9 hours per day using media for their own enjoyment. This does not include the use of media at school or for schoolwork. The slightly younger tweens spend about 6 hours daily using media for fun.

While working on homework, 60 percent admit they are also texting. Seventy-five percent say they listen to music while doing homework. Others admit to being on social media or watching television while working on homework.

Even with this upside there is still a downside because with these social media sites are greatly affecting today’s teenagers, in turn are making it a health concern for these teens to be on social media. Communication is key to any thing you do whether you are talking to a friend or speaking to your doctor on your latest test results. Real communication skills are what teenagers are lacking today. These social practices that you have been taught throughout your life seem to be missing in today's generation since eye to eye contact and having conversations without looking down on your phone are very rare to see today. Dr. Catherine Steiner-Adair, a clinical psychologist says that “There’s no question kids are missing out on very critical social skills” and she goes on to say that it “puts everybody in a non verbal disabled context, since body language, facial expression and any vocal reactions are invisible.” Social media sites have taken away the need...
