 I use the internet frequently for
school but also have young children
that love to play games and things
This makes it hard for me to say I
am against it but I know the kinds
of things that my kids can see and
get themselves into when they are a
little older

 What happens when a innocent kid
goggles the word Beaver for a
project..and finds hundreds of porn
sites with hairy Asian women?
Parents will not always monitor
their kids on the internet, there
are Lou poles for
everything..including monitoring
MSN convos..if you wanna talk go on
facebook chat. Its a fact, if we
aren't supposed to do it..we will
automatically want to go and do it.
Children will not always be
monitored by their parents while on
the internet, it only takes one
time of them not watching over them
for their kid to accidentally click
on a popup from an unsafe site that
they thought was innocent.

 I agree with you. The internet
contains a large amount of useful
resources for our youth but also
contains a large amount of
negative resources for them as
well. If the parents of these
youth would become more involved in
these youths lives then the
negative influences could be
addressed and monitored so as not
to let them influence the youths.

 Internet provides both good and bad
for youth.
Examples:
Advantages: Provides information
for reports
Disadvantages: Provides easy access
to sexual content

 I agree. The internet is a negative
influence for youths as there are
cases of theft of personal info,
the viewing of porn sites and the
addiction to online games.

 Yes it has bad - even deadly
effects on kids today- so many
kids meeting a stranger on line
then in person, then is never to be
seen again. You never know who is
on the other side of the screen

it helps our youth prepare for real
life by showing both sides of the
picture

 I think it gives them more
opportunities to get into trouble.
It is something that should be
supervised by the parent and not
used as a babysitter for kids. It
is great for research and all, but
who are the kids talking to ya
know.

 It is completely depends on users
how they use it? Well, i think
Internet is greatly a useful thing
and anyone can collect data of any
type from it without any charge or
without much waste of time.to get
knowledge it works as a
miracle.negative use is only there
when somebody cares for waste of
time and life's purpose.

 Internet is a just like a cloud
which moves nearer to the area
where there is more wind you know,
wind of application and thoughts,
so it completely depends upon how
to utilise it

 As others have stated, there are
far more influences in the world
that have a negative impact on
young people. The internet
obviously can be negative, but on
balance it is probably not as bad
as many TV programs, computer games
or movies. I feel the worst
influence on youth are "role
models" such as pop stars who
behave in a way that is in my mind
totally unacceptable.

 As the time is passing new
developments and technologies are
introduced in this world.When at
first they are made ,their purpose
is to serve mankind and to help us
in various fields. The true meaning
of the creation of any technology
is truly to advance our lives and
make it prosperous.Now its up to us
and our minds whether we use these
advancements for our betterment or
against our own selves.Computer and
Internet are two of the most
amazing scientific discoveries
which have a great influence on our
lives.Our lives are connected very
much with these two things.They
help us every time and almost
everywhere.Now it depends on us
whether we use it in a positive way
or a negative way.Both ways will
affect our lives.A machine or
technology is not baqd or dangerous
,it is us who make things worse for
ourselves.We destroy our lives with
our own hands.So in the end I would
like to say that if we will use
this awesome machine in a good way
it will definitely benefit us and
make our lives really great :) !

 If you think internet presents
negative influence then every thing
in this world has disadvantages.
You can't stop train all of a
sudden to avoid accidents. Is it
proper to cancel trains?

 No. It depends on how it will be
used. Just like a car will take
you places, it could also lead to
disaster. The same thing with the
Internet.

 Oh hardly. I'm practically a child
of the Internet, and the only
adverse effect on me is i do put up
with obvious lieing and obvious
efforts to control people. The
Internet has done 3 things to me :
1: Enlighten me to world events and
cultures 2: Make me much better at
stating my ideas and have a great
access to writings and C: Given me
a slightly morbid sense of humor. I
can live with that, especially
seeing as i enjoy it.

 I think it depends on the one using
it, if he is using it to get the
good benefits then he's getting the
good influence, but if he is using
it in a bad way then he'll get the
negative influence for sure.

 Well the first point that comes to
my mind is about the user and
his/her usage of the net either in
a productive manner or in an
unproductive manner..!
But then every single thing has two
facets-so my first point would be
my ultimate and final point as net
is something irreversible
process..!so is to WATCH-our wisdom
,actions ,thoughts,character,and
hands!

 No, no negative influence. Perhaps
the parents should pay more
attention to what there children
look at?
The Internet is as bad an influence
as movies, TV, video games, radio,
ect.

 It can't be negative if parents
monitor what they are doing on it,
and any good parent will do so
until the child is old enough to
monitor themselves. There has to be
more parents involved to make sure
they aren't getting into trouble,
but alas, today's society, a lot of
parents don't. I do, and she isn't
allowed to be on the pouter at
someone else's house unless the
parents are monitoring the kids.

 The Internet is a negative
influence on kids? So was the
radio, TV, ummm….skateboarding,
ECT. Come on! Kids live in an age
where they have access to unlimited
amounts of information. Kids have
the ability to type by the time
they can read. Not all kids surf
the net and look at porn and idle
their time away. Please I heard
that when I read comic books!
Don’t you all wish your kid read
comics now? Bad influence.
Whatever! I don’t see this
highway of information slowing down
anytime soon. If your kid is not
up to speed….well I’m sorry
mine will run them over…LOL

 I think that the Internet is a
great tool for the children if it
is monitored by the parents. A
child can learn so much more on the
web and will want to learn by using
it.

 No. I don't agree with you.
Internet is a positive influence on
the youths. It just depends on what
websites they are searching,
chatting, reading, etc. The
Internet can be useful for kids in
many ways.
