Hello Friends, How are you all? Hopefully, you all will be fine and happy. Welcome to my post. First of all , congratulations this wonderful community on well deserved success for hosting Season 8. This is my participation post in this community.

An informative and interesting contest organized by this Community. Social Media is integral part of our life. We can judge the power of social media through our daily life how much we use social media. The use of social media is depend on the mindset of individuals. Social media has its pros and cons. But still the future of social media will be influential enough. This is ongoing debate about social media future and use. Let's start this post.



My Age When I started using Social Media Networks & My Experience Been So Far?


I started using social media when I was18 years old. At that time I passed my Intermediate. First year of my inter was a time when I started to use proper social media for my studies. Because I purchased a cell phone for my studies at that time. Before that I was unaware about the use of social media. When I got admission in City college. At that time it was new and amazing thing for me. Then I started social media. That's why I got position in my class. Because I developed my skills through Social media.

My experience with social media has been positive so far as I have used it for my learning and gaining knowledge from different platforms like youtube , google etc. I have been able to utilize social media in a productive and beneficiary way.

I have been on social media since at the 18 age but under the supervision of my parents and teachers who supervises me and guide me to productive use of social media. I always use social media for my grooming and learning.



In My Opinion, What is the Best Age for Peoples to have access to social networks?


The question about right age for people to using social media is a subject of ongoing debate among parents, students and researchers. According to a Research, children should wait until they are at least 13 years old. Even at this age parents are responsible to monitor and guide children. This is very debating question because the decision is based on individual factors such as maturity , responsibility and parantal guide.

According to me , when we cross 18 years age this is the best time to use social media properly. Because at that time we are mature enough to understand to know what is right and what is wrong. Even at that time we are able to know the purpose of using social media.

But the thing is that for the use of social media a person must be responsible and mindful. In this age factor doesn't matter. In this modern ( even post modernist era) time , agr factor is very less. The thing that is necessary for taking this decision is when we are mature enough to understand the purpose then it is bet time to use social media.

Because we know social media is now integral part of our life. Every person use social media for its own internet and needs. So the thing is that person should be responsible and mature. I'm sure you are satisfied with my answer.



What I want to say to those who are no longer responsible for managing their social media accounts?


It's very bad if we didn't lonher to have mange our social media accounts. If someone who is no longer responsible
for managing their social media accounts it's important for them to secure their accounts and privacy of their accounts. They should change the password to prevent his or her account for unauthorized access.

Someone share personal information on social media profiles. They should delete it fir protection and privacy. If someone is no longer interested on social media , they can delete or deactivate their accounts. Managing time is best strategy ever. People should try to manage their social accounts as well.



My ideas on how to properly manage our social media account?


We can manage our social media account through setting out goals and purpose to use it. Because when we have clear goals , it helps us to focus on our efforts. We can also develop a strategy. We can manage our account by sharing athentic and original thoughts , opinions and experiences.

By following these Guidlines we can build strong and effective social media. I had positive experience because it helps me a lot for my studies. But we should use it with responsibly and mindfully. We must be mindful for our privacy settings. In this way we can manage our social media account.



What do you think our future will be with this power of social networks?

Social media has its own prose and cons. It highly depends on individual use. If we use it for good purpose then future will be bright for us because advantages will be taken through the use of social media. Because the use of social media has impact on our lives. The future of social media power is difficult to predict.

According to my opinion and observations it will play a very significant role in our personal or professional lives. It will become even more influential in shaping public opinions. There may be increased awareness that will lead to the development of new policies to promote healthy and positive use of social media.



Advantages and Disadvantages of Social Networks in your life.

Congratulations to the community on the success of hosting Season 8, and thank you for sharing your thoughts on social media. It is true that social media is a powerful tool that can have both positive and negative effects on our lives, depending on how we use it. I appreciate that you started using social media under the guidance of your parents and teachers for productive purposes. As for the best age for people to access social networks, it is a debated topic that depends on individual factors such as maturity and parental guidance. I agree that being responsible and mindful is more important than age when using social media. To manage our social media accounts, we can set clear goals and strategies and be mindful of our privacy settings. The future of social media is difficult to predict, but it will likely continue to play a significant role in shaping public opinions and promoting healthy and positive use. Finally, thank you for sharing the advantages and disadvantages of social media use. It is important to be aware of both and use social media in a balanced way.

Thank you very much for your compliment.

It is important for individuals to manage their social media accounts responsibly, including securing their accounts and protecting their privacy. Deleting or deactivating accounts when no longer interested is a viable option. Managing time and personal information is key to using social media in a positive and safe way.

One of the most significant ways in which social media has transformed society is by giving people a platform to express their opinions, connect with like-minded individuals, and rally behind causes they believe in. Social media has been instrumental in organizing political protests, social movements, and charitable campaigns, making it an indispensable tool for social and political change.

However, social media also has its downsides. The ease with which information can be shared on social media means that fake news and misinformation can spread rapidly. Social media platforms have also been criticized for contributing to online harassment, cyberbullying, and the spread of hate speech.

Thank you very much for your compliment.
