Modern technology in terms of cyberspace has had enormous effects on human real-life, especially in terms of communication. But in the memories of the past generation, they used to use a wired house phone along with a long card stretched to the hall closet to gain a bit of privacy. Then the use of having secret communication with the loved one has been replaced with the typed language of emotions and acronyms that without the description enable the user to have the same privacy from anyone such as parents. Today, handheld microcomputer devices known as cell phones have aided in making a world of tecnologia uomo-uomo interaction. But it arguably decreases the essence of human interaction or presence. Today, we are facing serious issues of interpreting skills in our young kids and teens who are used to living in a text-driven culture and sharing faces sharing bodies using social media apps via mobile phones back and front cameras.
La tecnologia fa mancare alla gioventù la capacità di interpretare
Today the young generation that has opened their eyes to the presence of technological creatures such as social media, the internet, and smartphones lack the skills to interpret the other 90% of the communication does not involve words or speech. Stuff like facial expression (emotions say the truth), eye movement, body language, tone or pitch of the voice, inflection volume, and even gestures add meaning to the whole communication or conversation. The young generation especially teens is being deprived of learning and how to interact based on primal methods that our forefathers have passed to our elders. Additionally, we parents are facing a transformation of what is affecting our teenagers like no time ever before.

Moreover, the uncommitted sex culture among teens using social messaging apps and spending all the time on cell phones text messaging, and phone calls are making a statement that social media is making us unsocial to the fullest, and cases of adolescent and teen pregnancy would rise due to blind dating and uncommitted sexual activities of teens.

There are several TV shows such as “Pesce gatto” on MTV focusing on online dating and the potential dangers that may come your way when someone especially a young girl thinks of meeting a person outside the internet. However, the phenomenon of cyberbullying is been the most threatening issue for young teens resulting in many teens worldwide harming themselves or others. However, all these negative byproducts and digital culture are being called normal among the young generation. You can see the example of modern times movies in which all the characters in the movies start staring at their cell phones and never look at someone else except the cell phone screen.

Gli adolescenti vogliono un'accettazione inestinguibile tra pari e i social media lo fanno davvero bene
About one thing I am quite sure that most teens want to be accepted by their peers and social media can do the job fully for the ones who are shy and want to be noticed. So, they use the internet on their cell phones and use instant messaging apps such as Facebook, Yahoo, Snapchat, and others to make potential friends. In reality, it is escapism for real life being not able to face real–life issues due to their lack of confidence. However social media does not believe in discrimination at all and provides users the facility to do whatever they want to. On the other hand, teens sometimes put themselves in trouble even in the digital world such as
cyber bullies, stalkers, and sexual predators. However, on instant messaging platforms, they can send text messages, they can perform chat conversations, and share and receive photos and videos of their online friends. But in the real life, they may be rejected by their peers and even by the ones they have feelings for someone. When it comes to social media, any kind of rejection does not embrace teens at all due to anonymity at least to some extent where the number of people is not around and the sender and receiver are used to making conversations.
Gli adolescenti di solito usano i social media per trovare le risposte ai loro problemi della vita reale, all'identità e per essere popolari
Teens make social media profiles and often post some quires from funny to tragic and they get the answer from the other fellow users within minutes. They search for the answers related to their real-life issues and often use them to get some relief from their emotional and mental pain. Dramatically, most teens who are abused in real–life or online life ask advice from people on social media.
Moreover, they also ask for advice about a relationship and the very tragic thing to know why they have not found all the answers in their own families such as mom and dad, and from siblings.
Furthermore, they also look for an identity not only to seek acceptance but also for whom they want to be. They also want to be popular such as tweens in schools and teens among boys having a cute face and body and they use Vine instant messenger and six seconds longer video and share to the instant messaging app. So, they share their good looks, especially those teens who are naturally blessed with good looks and fit bodies. So they use the front and back cameras of contemporary cell phone devices filters and Photoshop software to enhance the color of their skin and the features of their face. So, the selfie culture has played a big role in bringing young teens and teens to the digital world, but contemporary technology in terms of social messaging apps and smartphones is eliminating the essence of physical human interaction.
I genitori sono quelli che dovrebbero fare il passo avanti e parlare con i loro ragazzi
Parents are the ones who need to initiate to encourage young kids and teens for real-life activities and they need to set parental control on teens’ social media activities which they perform mostly on cellphones. So, parents need to know and stay updated all the time about whom their teens and tweens making calls, text messages, and what sort of friends they have on social messaging apps. Moreover, they also keep an eye on the stuff teens share online on different social messaging platforms. However, lasts but not least, parents should teach kids and teens the Netiquette of the internet and social media apps. They should discuss the vulnerabilities of the fake internet and how they can use it positively, they should win the trust of their teens in a friendly way and get to know what questions they have in their minds about life.
