    Yes... on mindless stupidity, such as Face Book and texting.

    A good positive for information, if properly filtered...

    The biggest problem, is PARENTS, who are not aware and don't monitor access...

    The internet has become more powerful, than any human in a teenager's life... That is why there is so much bullying, and violence...Extremists & ISIS love to recruit teens that are troubled and insecure.. In this day of INSTANT messages, it is hard to control what teens see..... The weapon of defense is parents, who block, monitor and talk to their teens about the pros and cons of the internet....

    Not really. In fact, it really annoys me when people when people complain about kids, youth, teens et c being on the internet alot, but then those same people will complain to cops when they see children or teens outside playing without adult supervision & saying they're being neglected.
