One of the most obvious negative aspects of social networking is losing face-to-face contact with other people. Teens are sitting around with their phones in their hands all day long, tapping messages onto screens instead of communicating with real people. Many teenagers feel more comfortable with virtual friends than with real ones. The majority think that it is easier to chat on the Internet because they lack communication skills. It is also true that parents often have no knowledge about what their kids do with their phones or computers. Crosby says that, "While kids are plugged in to social media, only about 40% of parents are involved themselves." And because parents don't know the full picture, they also don't know how to deal with a teenager's potential overuse of social media and might not even be aware that a problem exists. Therefore, social networking can be much more immediately engaging with the teenager's life than parents are, and this fact makes virtual communication feel more "real" than face-to-face communication. In the long run, this may create a generation that struggles with real-life social interactions. Some teenagers even develop anxiety or stress when they are away from their devices. To prevent these negative effects, parents and schools should guide young people on how to balance online and offline life. Only with proper guidance can social networking be a useful tool instead of a harmful one. Question 28. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Parents should use social networks more to understand their children. B. Students are using social networks too much C.

A. Chatting on the Internet is easier than talking with real people. B. Chatting on the Internet is more difficult than talking with real people C.
