Do young people have too much freedom on the internet?
In today's society, parents are free to leave their children sat in front of a computer screen believing they are safe from the outside world. But are they. The internet can give biased opinions on important issues, and encourage young people to get involved in immoral activities.
Dangers of the internet to very young people
- They can get involved with crime
- They can get access to violent video footage.
- They can go onto sites and agree to meet people they don't know
- They can watch pornography
- They can get other youths involved in these activities
I know that many of you may argue that not all children will do these things, some of you may say that pornography is harmless. But consider both points of view. There also benefits of the internet such as help with homework. Keeping in touch with friends. What I'm really asking is, do the benefits outweigh the risks?
