  2. Time Spent on Facebook • The large amount of time teenagers spend on Facebook seems to continually result in negative effects. Teenagers are realizing that they are becoming almost dangerously addicted to Facebook. New York Times calls this the “Lure of the Log-In”. • The deactivation of some student’s Facebook accounts are causing them to have better study habits and more concentration in the schooling environment. • Parents are beginning to have concerns that Facebook is taking away from their education and family life. The social network can now be activated from almost any technology device, including iPads, iPods, laptops, cell phones, and tablets. • The National Association of Independent Schools say “We don’t believe this is healthy for them.” 95% of college students use 6-10 hours on Facebook each week.

  3. Should parents set a time limit? Many people believe that parents should set a time limit for their children to use Facebook. By doing so, it may result in a healthier amount of sleep, better grades at school, and a better family bond. • What do you think?

  4. Bullying On Facebook It’s not a joke! Cyber bullying can result in low self esteem, poor grades at school, depression, anxiety, health issues, and when the worst gets to the worst; suicide.

  5. What to do if you are bullied on Facebook • Facebook realizes that many teens are facing the problem of cyber bullying. They have made it so users are able to “block” any person who harasses them. This makes it so the bully cannot have any contact with you through the internet. • The victim can also message a friend for help with the bully. Cyber bullying has even recently increased the number of teen suicides. • Facebook has noticed these issues and has made major changes to the site to help with cyber bullying. But…is it enough?

  6. Victim of cyber bullying • On http://thegloss.com/beauty I read of 13 year old Nicolette Taylor who was bullied on Facebook for having a ‘big nose’. • She decided to get a nose job since the harassment wouldn’t stop. PROOF that bullying can cause people to go to extremes. Fortunately, Nicolette did not turn towards suicide like many other teens sadly have in the past.

  7. Acting Differently On Facebook • It’s likely for you to act differently in front of your parents, than you would with your friends. But some people take it too far and have double lives on Facebook. On www.scienceofpeople.org they say that this is pretty normal. Teens try to act tougher on Facebook, or cooler so they can be more popular. • For example: A girl saw a status about herself on Facebook , and when she tried to confront the person who posted it, they denied everything. • Another example is: A boy said he refused to cuss in person, but on Facebook every other word he typed was a cuss word. • BE CAREFUL. There are some consequences if you mess with the wrong people. Popular Cool Different

  9. FACEBOOK SURVEY STATISTICS • We surveyed 28 different students on the 8B team and asked them personal questions about their thoughts and uses on Facebook. • Here are our results!

  10. 32% of 8B students say they have been bullied on Facebook.

  11. 91% say they have witnessed somebody else being bullied on Facebook.

  12. 53% of students who witnessed someone being bullied on Facebook say they did NOT try to help out the person being bullied.

  13. 50% say that somebody has made them feel insecure on Facebook.

  14. 46% of students say they spend 1 hour on Facebook each day. 43% say they spend 2-3 hours on Facebook every day.

  15. The remaining 11% spend 4 hours or more on Facebook every day.

  16. 54% think they would study more or have better grades if they did not have a Facebook.

  17. 82% of those surveyed say that they ARE friends with their family on Facebook.

  18. 18% of students say they act differently on Facebook than in person.

  19. 29% of students say their Facebook is ‘Public’, meaning anyone can look at it even if they are not “friends”. 50% say their Facebook is private, meaning only people they are “friends” with can see it. 21% say they do not know whether their Facebook is private or public.

  20. These real statistics prove many of our points. Be aware of the dangers of Facebook and use it in a safe way for you and others.

  21. Conclusion We hope you’ve learned these main points : 1. Society feels more powerful on the internet since they aren’t actually around people. REPORT CYBER BULLIES. 2. Spending too much time on Facebook could affect your grades and make you act different. Based on the information and statistics, we recommend that you not use Facebook too much. Start lowering the amount of time you spend on Facebook for a healthier life!
