The teens of India are soon going to be called “vamping teens” considering the impact Facebook and whatsapp has established in their night lives. The nights which were for sleep have been converted to socializing time by these young guns. The answer which was received by one of them when asked why Facebook, whatsapp at night only was that mornings are busy with studies, schools etc so the only time left is night. The answer itself shows that these socializing mediums have become uncompromising for these young guns. The addiction for these has risen so much that they have decided to compromise with their night’s sleep also.
The survey on the number of text messages shared between the teens on 2013 showed that around 60% of them were used to send some 125 messages daily. It would not be astonishing to say that the numbers would have surely increased considering the reach of the smart phones to them. When the possible reason behind this was asked to a doctor who deals with the addiction on internet the answer was not very discouraging. He pointed out that most of the messages shared by these teens were regarding their full day studies which they are unable to confide to their parents or teachers.
The impact that these socializing mediums has put on the teens future is being seeing in their studies performance. The performance has surely deteriorated and the reason is well aware with the teens also. When queried over this, the reply was that if children of class 4 can do it then why not us. With this note they are encouraged beyond barriers to continue with their midnight madness of Facebook and whatsapp.
