Social media: A fake reality

Author: Robin - 5th grade

I don’t like a lot of things about social media. I don’t like haters because they insult for no reason other people. And I think social medias is a drug for a lot of people. But I like the principle of social media, the concept to post and share our passion, our hobby, our talent to the world.

I don’t have a good relation with social network because I don’t like the concept to divulge all my life in a platform that I'm not control of. I'm not hyper connected and I don’t have all applications and all platforms because, I think I have to keep a real interaction and to do distinctions between the real life and the virtual life. I really like the real life and I'm afraid of losing it.

In the internet, you aren't sure to watch reality. A lot of influencers fake your life. Some people are lying a lot or other less. It's practically impossible to know the real life and hobby of the influencers. I don’t like watching people who lie. It's very cool to invent and dream a more beautiful life but to keep a part of reality is important. There are a lot of people who watch influencers with a beautiful life and after, they are depressed because they don’t have a new car, a big house or they are not going in vacation. In conclusion, you don’t believe all the information in the social media.
