Teenagers vs Adults

Hi people!
 The discussions between adults and teenagers are very common, but what are the reasons of this discussions? In this post I'm going to write about these conflicts.

One of the most common topics of discussion are the new technologies like mobile phones, computers,game consoles... that they can be very addictive and teenagers are used to playing a lot with them.Parents, normally, tend to control the using time and to punish bad behaviors with banning the use of these new technologies.An action that get teenagers very furious and creates a lot of conflicts.

The home returning time at night and the weak desire of teenagers to do homework's and study are also very common conflicts in family's with teenagers.The teenagers, in general, like to going out at night and return as late as they can but in parents opinion teenagers are too young to return at the early morning. Mobile phones and more new technologies are very distracting and this items distract teenagers from doing homework's and studying.



As a conclusion, as teenager that I am and taking in account my personal experience, I can say that this three topics can create quite a lot of problems in the parents-teenagers relations. To avoid this conflicts I would recommend to conform between the two parts,I mean, if the teenager want to return at 5 a.m and the parent at 2 a.m, put a middle line, for example at 3:30 a.m.

Are many researches about this conflicts and some of them are very interesting, if you want more information click in following link.

SECURITY IN SOCIAL WEBSITES

Hi friends!
In this post I am going to write about the security in social websites like facebook, tuenti or twitter. I will give you some advices to navigate securely in the previously mention websites that can be useful for children that is going to create a account and also for parents of those children.

In my opinion this social websites have a lot of advantages, one of this is hat you can talk with a person that is far away without paying.If you want, you also can make a videochat using a webcam absolutely free.This is a huge advantages if you want to see a person and you can't because the distance.

Although I don't find any disadvantages, my parents said that social websites and internet in general are very adictive. In addition teenagers tend to give more inmportance to the internet than to the homework or studyng.

I would advice tou children that are about creating a account in any social website to write only the essencial information about yourself, and to thin twice when you are going to upload a photo.In adittion, I thin that would b positive for everyone that parents controled a bit the time that his child use social websites.
