Nowadays, internet is very popular with young people (youth). Most of them spend a lot of time in surfing the net. They feel that the internet has brought a lot of advantages. Internet affects young people not only in positive side but also in negative side.

There is no doubt that the internet has good influences in improving young people’s knowledge. It keeps everyone informed. With few minutes each day, we can update necessary news. Moreover, more and more youth use the internet to search information for their work or their study. They can also learn much about cultures, history, geography, etc through abundant source on the internet.

On the other hand, there are three negative influences of the internet on young people. Firstly, the over use of computer brings the bad physical effects. Some people harm their eyes by sitting front of the screen for a long time without rest. Other diseases such as stomachache, headache and back pain are easy to suffer. Furthermore, the internet seems separate youth from the real world. Although they usually update news or current affairs, their face-to-face communications are very poor. They communicate with others throughout websites like Yahoo, Friendster, and Facebook instead of going out with family or meeting friends. Therefore, young people can loss their sensibilities in relationships or have difficulty in real communication. In additions, a lot of website is not good for people to see, especially teenagers. For example, many more websites which can’t be censored contain incorrect information, violence, sexy films, videos, and many more.

In conclusion, besides improving our knowledge, I think that the internet increasingly affect in bad ways both physical and emotional. It is up to us whether to use the internet to improve our knowledge or use it to destroy our emotion and even our body.
