Essay: The Impact of the Internet
It is said that the internet is the most used and interesting new technology nowadays. Despite the fact that it can be dangerous, everybody has a computer and internet at home.
On the one hand, it is very useful because it allows you to do many activities; while you are talking to your friends on a social networking page, you can search for information. Moreover, many people can find jobs on the internet and even a partner.
On the other hand, the internet can be dangerous if we do not make good use of it. Children spend much of their time on the internet; consequently, they do not study for their exams and they fail.
In my opinion, parents should control their children. In spite of the fact that parents worry about it, they have to pay more attention to it.
