Teenagers are nowadays communicating with their friends through social media and we cannot blame them, we all are. However, it is important to understand the positive and negative impact that social media has on teenager's friendships.

First of all, social media is great for them to keep in touch with friends they do not see very often, it allows them to interact in different platforms, which means they can share interests in common through social media. The pandemic made everything very difficult for teenagers, so being able to keep in touch and feel closer to their friends through social media was actually good. However, interacting through social media so much and not having proper talks can make teenagers feel anxious when talking to each other in person. Social media should not replace face to face interaction.

To sum up, it is very important that teenagers interact with their friends online but it is important to also interact outside the Internet, there is a significant difference between having a conversation with a friend online or in person.
