Based on the letter by a reader about Facebook 'confessions' not a bad thing, it seems that many are sharing their problems online rather than talking to someone. Do you think social network such as facebook, twitter has a negative consequences on human face to face interaction?

i think we should talk face to face rather than texting other like last time when i went to kfc i saw a girl and a boy chatting each other on the phone when they were sitting next to each other.
I think that facebook and twitter has taken over people's live's . So when people go on to facebook or twitter , they chat for hours while when they meet in person , they will just say hi and nothing else and if they continue to depend on thecnology , they may become blind . So people should go to the park and look and green stuff like trees or grass so that you will not have to wear glasses .So I think that facebook and twitter does have a negative consequense on human's face to face interaction . :)
yep, based on this article about the facebook "confession"it is ok to tell someone on face to face.
I think that we should have to talk more on human face to face while not in computer as we can be more social and not look at computer at all times.When i saw an family walking together and they was all using an phone.People should use at least 3 to 4 hours per day so that they could be more social.
Yes, If there are no social network, then the world will become a place where everybody will look at their phones,computer......etc.
I think it is okay for people to share some 'confessions' online BUT too much will lead to NEGATIVE consequences such as 'Two friends wanted to meet up but when they are at the meet up point, no one knows what to say and ended up saying 'Hi. Bye.' and when they went home, on their computer and say a lot of things.'
yes i think facebook is has negavite consequences on human face interactions but human express their feelings and commets on facebook and twitter.For e.g. i was at subway with my family then i saw i husband and wife the were using their phones and when they say something to each other the only siad tis is good.I and my family were shocked but we just walked away i think people should talk to each other face to face and can use facebook at home.
i think what we should talk face to face as it is better as we use short cut words on the internet.
Although social networks, such as Facebook and twitter, may have their consequences, the advantages practically overcame them. For instance, a face to face talk would make the speaker shy, embarrassed or even ashamed. Whereas, if one share him/her ideas online, the person would remain anonymous (as stated in the Forum).
Many are afraid that what they wrote may affect their social life if anybody finds out about how mushy or 'from the heart' they state their problems if somehow someone managed to find out who was the source. This may also be thought as a downside to social networking to some people. I, too, would be affected if I wrote anything 'mushy' and would it be found out that I was the source. I can guess many people are in the same boat as me. If your wondering, it's the emotion called embarrassment, but let me tell you this: it is better to express your problem in the most embarrassing way than suffer in silence. Never let that emotion overcome you, just speak up.
Yes, the reason is simple, on the internet other people might be able to see what you have written and pretend to be the person you were talking to and then "gang up' on you. It is better to talk face to face so you can understand each other better.
I think it is because sometimes people might go into our facebook account and look at our problems that we have tell to our people that we know on facebook.
Hi my name is S.Shrree Sindujah Nair. Today I am going to tell why is sharing their problems online rather than talking to someone. Do you think social network such as Facebook, twitter has a negative consequences on human face to face interaction? For me my answer is a yes and a no. Why is that so??
Example when we are chatting online you might not know who is the real person behind the screen. When we call and talk to a person it will ensure we are talking or communicating to him or her. When we are chatting on the computer we might be not sure how are we communicating to. Is this person suppose to be who I should be talking to? There are always fear and confusion when we are in the use of the internet.
Sometimes when we are talking on issues such as secrets and personal stuff on the phone, there might be people on the phone which you may not know others....
So there is always a plus and minus point when you use the computer/internet and the phone/home phone.
I feel that through this article and question all devises are good when you use them in different things properly. Like we can use it for useful things is just that you must be careful how you use it in the way you are comfortable in and which is convenient for you. It's all about how you use it.

i think that facebook and twitter is just a network to type about something like feeling of yourself or thing that are interesting stuff.
I think people should share their problems with someone personal rather than sharing it with the internet. You may think that telling your problem online is okay and that people cannot do anything about it but the truth is that and what you put online will always stay there and hunt your future. No one is stoping you from using facebook our twitter etc. The main thing is not to tell the internet about your personal things
it is a bad thing to share your problems online to people you don't know.even on facebook,twitter and other webs that you can find or chat with and also if you tell other people about your family problems they will know and will track you down only if you tell them the adress.
No,i do not think social network such as facebook, twitter has a negative consequence on human face to face interaction.
Yes. I usually share my problems with my friends,and if you post it on Facebook or any other website that we could share info, other people around the world could start making some negative comments.So if we have any problems we should seek solutions from our teachers,friends or family
This is siti-adawiyah,i think thatboth are right eventhough you are in different places r not.It is the topic that matter not where you are.
Talking about facebook confession
In my opinion, confession on human face to face interaction is not a bad thing. But i feel that it is bad because if you were to confess to a person whom you really like, you must know the person very well and at least meet the person once or twice to get to know each other better. It is not advisable to confess face to face as you don't even know who the person is and whether he/she is either good or bad.
That's the reason why i said it is bad. I totally disagree as it is ridiculous to confess in this way. I guess those people having confession problems out there, must have done it in the wrong way. If i were those people online confessing, i would never confess face to face! What if the person took your photo during video chat, you may not even know what trouble you might get into. I would rather chat to the person using short message system or using facebook chat.
This is why i strongly object to confessions on facebook.
On facebook, I may be chatting with them for alot and spend most of my time doing so, but when I see them face to face I would feel really uncomfortable around him/her.I feel social networking is bad because of that as I do not know who that person is and how he/she actually look like or what characteristics he/she really has.
If we chat a lot through social network and when it comes to real life, you will feel very akward to talk to that person. You will feel weird. And when you chat on social network,you won't be yourself. You might be slightly rude and tend to create trouble, and when you meet the person who created the trouble, you tend to feel angry
When you come face to face with the person you normally talk on Facebook with,you will feel uncomfortable as the stranger can do anything to you that you did not expect.
I think that we should not put our problems on facebook or twitter, because a lot of people can know about your problem and stalk you. I talk to a lot of schoolmates in facebook but I do not talk to them in school. I talk to them a lot but in school I don’t even look at them for a second. We are like friends online and strangers offline. But I really feel that social network is taking over the world. As people very seldom talk to each other offline and talk a lot online. I think that people should talk to each other face to face more.
No.When you talk to the person on Facebook, you get to make friends. Then when you see the person in real life,it becomes easy to talk .That's what i think.
YES!Humans should not spend so much time on the computer as if in reality and other people want to talk to them or touch them, they might go bonkers and start screaming and freaking out.
Some people actually die from staring at the computer screen 24/7 and using it for gaming purposes and not going outdoors.
Yes I think that Facebook, twitter and other webs have negative consequences as you might not know anything much about your online friend you chat. But when you meet with him, you will know how he looks like or how he reacts to you when you make him fuming mad.I think that it is still the best to keep your account private and chat with your close family members, relatives or friends only in order not to get into deep trouble if something big goes on. If you always chat only online and not meet the other party, you might start to have a feeling that you hate to go outdoors to meet your close ones. You will also use every extra seconds that you have to chat online and the way you interact will be different after not talking for a long time.
yes people who chat online (like me) will feel awkward around the person when they actually meet.( not like me) they may also feel angry over an argument over the social network and they will fight.
I think that there are a lot of negative impacts when you just ensconce yourself in your bedroom, facing the computer screen, chatting with friends on Facebook.
The impacts would be
- Lesser communication face to face with families or friends
- Spending lesser time outdoors rather than indoors.
- Eyes will spoil staring at the computer for too long time.
- And more…
I think that the negative consequences are:
When people talk face to face, they will feel awkward as they usually talk to each other on Facebook.
People’s fingers would ache a lot. As when they talk on Facebook, they are typing most of the time.
People would not be able to work with each other during group project as they are too used to talking and discussing things on Facebook.
Yes if they do not meet face to face, they may not remember their friends after a few months and if they do not interact face to face, in the future it is hard to make friends.
I agree that when people are spending more time on social networking. they might feel comfortable not seeing the person, but once you start seeing the person more frequently you will feel very uneasy or uncomfortable talking to the person face to face. Other people may lie to lure you to speak out your own secrets and embarrassing moments, and if the person is not trustworthy they might tell your secrets
I think Facebook 'confession' is not a bad thing as i make quite a lot of friends through chatting Facebook with them so to me there is no negative consequences
Yes, I think social network such as Facebook, twitter has a negative consequences on human face to face interaction as people may get used to chatting on social networks and not be trained to have a face to face interaction with people in the society.
People on face book can hide their identities and may share info or pictures that meant to be private or use it so they can know about other people identities so they can kidnap them. That is why I do not encourage using facebook unless they are far away, talking about class projects and discussions.
Social Networking gets people to be more socialised and connect to people around them. Whether it has a negative consequence on them or not, it depends if you know the person that you are talking to. If you know the person outside home well, then it would not have a negative consequence when you are talking to them face to face in real life. If you think that they are not so close to you, try not to talk to them so much while social networking.
I think that we should not always chat on Facebook or Twitter, as we might be talking to someone else instead of our friends. We should try and talk to our friends in real life not on the computer. So I suggest that we should talk to our friends in real life.
However, sometimes, when we are talking to our friends in school we might lose our words halfway talking, or might be too embarrassed to ask certain types of questions.
Facebook is good AND bad. I make friends easier with those in school online. And you can get to know those better on Facebook. However, you can easily get your account hacked by hackers. And you are lying by faking your age as Facebook requires an age of 13 and above. Bad people might read your personal information online and stalk you. BUT, you can don't post your personal information online and you can only add those whom you PERSONALLY know. After all, a kitchen knife can be used in the kitchen when in the right hands(e.g., a housewife), but can also be used as a weapon when used in the wrong hands(e.g.a murderer).
I think we not share our problems online in social networks like Facebook or Twitter as the whole world would know our problem and some people will stalk us.Most of the time I talk to my schoolmates online and not so much in school.I feel people should have more face to face interaction.
i think Facebook 'confession' is not a bad think.sharing problems through Facebook while you're at home to rest

I think it does have some negative consequences as social neatwork may affect your life if most of the people online may not be the people who you think they are.Lots of other people change their profile name to something else that you would not know about.Then if a stranger online asks you to meet somewhere don't go there as the person you are meeting may have something up his sleeve.Don't take any risks online trusting people who are new to you.Only trust people you know and get to know their nicknames so that you can trust them online.
I agree and do not that facebook, twitter has negative consequences. It depends on the person. If the person is sharing their problems online rather than talking to someone the, yes, facebook and twitter do have negative consequences but if the person is just using his free time to chat with his or her friends then that should be alright.
Not only is it about sharing problems and chatting, it is also about protecting our eyesight. Staring into the computer for too long will cause you to have myopia. Then again, we can take a break every once in awhile just to relax our eyes.
That is what I think about facebook and twitter having negative consequences but honestly, I feel that facebook and twitter has negative consequences that we will regret. Some might cause you to not do work, skip school and the worst is that you might grow further apart from the ones who love you the most.
i think that social networks are not that bad as some people need their friends opinion but they are just shy to tell them face to face
Yes , As you are using facebook or twitter you will not feel very hard to talk to people , so you should use
facebook or twitter then going to coffee shops and talking to you friends ........
I think social network such as Facebook, twitter has negative consequences on human face to face interaction. I think so because when we chat with friends, I would want to chat to them face to face so that there would be more expression, more lively and more intimate.I feel that we will not build a lasting friendship over the internet as we do through interact with one another like playing sports together. However, when I chat with strangers, I will end the conversation as soon as possible, because sometimes, they might say something threatening, rude, or unpleasant. When I come across this kind of situation, I will immediately inform my parents, the school counselor or another adult that I trust.
I think that when a person talks face to face , they will feel weird.And when they feel that , they would not dare to talk as they are scared other people will laugh at them.
I agree that Facebook,Twitter and other social network have negative consequences as you might be chatting with someone you do not know or do know,and if you meet the person you might not speak in the way while chatting.The person might have a impression of your looks while chatting,and when the person meets you, he or she might feel awkward.
I think Facebook 'confession' is a good thing because lots of friend in my Facebook are my good friend so i think there will be no negative consequences as those my friend in my buddy list are my childhood friends.
I think people who are spending more time on social work is good because they might feel comfortable and relaxing but better not hang out with anonymous person.^_^
I do think that social network has a negative consequence on us. When talking to your friend too much online, you will see that when you see your friend in real life you would feel awkward with the person. But when you chat very little with your friend online, you will notice that you do not feel awkward with him/her. Social network lets us to interact with one another more easily especially if your grandmother who lives in another country. But it has more negative consequences than positive consequences. After dinner, once a person picks up his/her phone to go on Facebook, the rest will follow. Soon, the human face to face interaction is gone until they leave their seat which is terrible. So, spend more time talking to each other in real life than in the chat room!
Athena,
If the social network opens up as an alternate avenue for shy people and make them feel better , why not? We just have to be cautious.
Ms Tan
Lydia,
I much prefer to talk to others in person just like you. I could see their body language and expressions.
Ms Tan
Afiqah,
We just have to be very careful when we use social network tools.
Ms Tan
Sindujah,
There is always two sides of a coin. We just have to make a judgment call and see which side of the coin will benefit us.
Ms Tan
Siti,
If we chanced upon some interesting stuffs and would like to share with others, facebook is a good platform.
Ms Tan
Tricia,
Like you, I prefer to keep personal feelings private and share with people who are close to my heart.
Ms Tan
Shalea,
It will be very hurtful if mean people make horrible comments on our personal issues. It is always better to keep personal private.
Ms Tan
Why Zavier? Why is it not negative?
Ms Tan
Joel,
I totally agree with you. I much prefer to share my inner thoughts with people who are close to me and talk to them in person.
Ms Tan
Siti,
I am glad you could see both sides of a coin. You are right, the 'topic' or what you want to share with others online is very important. We all need to make wise decision.
Ms Tan
No. Sometimes, you might think that your problems are very awkward and you do not dare to speak up your problems, you feel more comfortable to chat with a friend in Facebook privately. In order to do so, you must know if your friend is trustworthy. If he or she is not, he or she might spread your 'awkward' problem to others and make fun of you. Example:
-You told your friend(not trustworthy)that you accidentally wet your pants and made him or her promise not to leak it out to anyone but the next day in school, when everyone saw you, they made fun of you.
Or if your friend is trustworthy:
-You told your friend that you had accidentally wet your pants and he or she promised not to tell anyone and the next day when you arrive in school, no one knew about it (nobody laughed or and make fun of you)
Choose the right friends to share your problems!
Thanks^^
It will have a negative impact on us.If we tell everyone on facebook and our relatives see it,they would surely call up my parents.And my parents would ask why I did not tell them.If we admit the truth to our parents,they may forgive us.You don't know what will they do or what will they ask us.In conclusion I have 3 things to tell.
1.Integrity.
2.The most hardest thing to do is to tell the truth.
3.'You can run,but you can't hide'.

I think we should not share our problem online as there might be a risk of the other person threatening, teasing or making unpleasant comments about your problem. It would be better to talk to talk to someone that you trust, like your family members. It is better to talk to your friends face to face rather than letting strangers see yours problem.
Unpleasant comments can make your problems worse. If you do not mind using the social network as a way to solve your problem you just need to be very cautious.
Yes I think that social networks such as Facebook,Twitter has a negative consequences.It is because when you are talking to your friend on Facebook or Twitter about some secret you cannot confirm that the person you are talking to is your friend.If it is not your friend the mysterious person will know your secret.But if you talk face to face with your friend you can confirm that it is your friend and nobody else will know what are you talking about.
I think social networks are not bad as some people are shy or they have no time to discuss the questions face to face. I also think when a person asked a question online, many people could answer it and then the person can choose the answer he wanted!

Yes and no. I say yes because if the topic you are talking about can be shared with the whole world, then it doesn’t matter, like when you are asking an appropriate question or when you are sharing something that can be shared. I say no because if you share your personal, family, e.t.c. Affairs, it would mean you are letting the whole world know about you. They might hunt you down. Another reason is that if we always use social networking such as face book, twitter and so on, we will always chat with others online and may not even know who he or she looks like.
I think we should share our problems face-to-face rater than sharing it online.
I think that facebook, twitter, etc should not be used to share poblems.Firstly, if you share your problems online, it will be there forever but if you share your problems verbally,it would not be there forever, just the moment you tell the other person/people. Secondly, sharing your problems verbally is a better way of interacting with others. Thirdly, by sharing problems online, you are being anti-social.Lastly, all your'freinds' on facebook can view it, but sharing it verbally is more private.
I, myself think that such social network has negative consequences to the human face to face interaction. It also can be a place where people post racist, offensive remarks that may upset or make others angry. For all of my problems, I usually consult my parents, teachers or school counsellor for advice. However, sometimes I try to resolve the problems myself. I also think that the social network is not a place for cyber- bulling, and posting private issues. In this case , students ask their seniors or rather than someone else for advice so I think it will be no problem as long as the author removes offensive posts made by other people .
Yes. I feel that communicating human face to face is generally better than communicating through network. Unless we do not feel comfortable talking face to face, we should not communicate through the network. Communicating through the network will not only spoil our eyesight, neglect our family members, but usually gets us distracted, like me. Whenever I use the network to communicate with my friends, I will always use the chance to play the games in Facebook, that is how I usually get distracted. But most importantly, we neglect our family members. That is usually the reason why parents object us, children, to even use the computer. So, I would prefer communicating human face to face than communicating through the network.

I think that sharing problems online is very nagetive. As others will know about your problems and talk bad or make fun of it.
I think face others is better than share your problems online because
if you share your problem online with a stranger,you cannot trust her/him absolutely so you will not get good ways to solve the problems.but facing your friend will more sincere than share your problems online.
Facebook and Twitter are social networks,not replacements for meetings.They are used for small chats and not major projects
I think it is both good side and bad side. It is mainly what do you think or rather what do you think these social network can do anything to you. If you think that social network is negative,well you are correct in you won way. We cannot say that if you think that social network is not the way to go,you are also correct. For example,using social network can reduce the time for you. Most of the message is free at first. You do not need to worry about the bills. You can also say that social network is not that way to go as typing for a long time is not good for you eyesight also you might get addicted to it . Well , different people has different points. For my conclusion social network has both good and bad sides. It is just how you think of it.
I think that social network such as Facebook and Twitter has a negative consequence in human face to face interaction. If you suddenly take internet access from someone who doesn’t talk about personal feelings face to face with someone, you might not know how to express your feelings by talking to someone with no internet access and by not knowing how to express your feeling, you store up all your feelings and too much negative ones are bad for you.
If you don’t know how to interact with someone face to face, during our Oral examination, we might not know how to tell the teacher about the picture.
I think social networks are not bad things. For some people, they are afraid of admitting their fears or express their thoughts to other people. They can say anything they want online. If they are anonymous, they do not need to be afraid of other people teasing them of their thoughts. They can also interact with their friends and family online. On the other hand, some people might abuse the use of online interaction and it would result in people getting cyber-bullied.
I think that there is no need for face-to-face interaction because anything can be done with chats. And the more unsafe it is if you talking to somebody you do not know or are not familiar with because they may ask you for your personal particulars that are private (e.g. NRIC no., address..). We should not give any private information online to anyone even though he/she may be your friend. The negative consequences is that when you provide the other party online with your information, some strangers you do not know might take your information and stalk you, or end up in your house stealing expensive or valuable things. It is very dangerous because they might also follow you and try to do something to you like kidnapping and asking your parents for a ransom or try to murder you. Never provide private information to a stranger or even people that you are not familiar with. Thanks.
I think talking face to face is much better than chatting online because you know who you are talking to and see If the person can help you.
Maybe you can talk to people that you know like parents, teachers,classmates or even siblings.
yes,if you chat to a random stranger, it will be dangerous but if you chat with people you know like classmates or reletives.it is dangerous to talk to other people as you may give then some private information like: 1:your name. 2:your school. 3:your colour of your shirt. 4:your home address (most dangerous.they can easily find you or call your parents and tell them that he/she have you hostage and ask for a ransom.(it happened before.)
Yes, I think that social network has negative consequences on human face to face interaction. It does not allow you to communicate to your friends in an appropriate language. Example:
- Talking in short forms
- Saying rude and/or unkind words
It is also not a very “active” way of talking. You do not really “talk”. It is more like just typing words on a keyboard and seeing it appear on the screen.
Moreover, you may be talking to someone who may be just pretending to be your friend. He/she may take advantage of information about you and might try to hurt you. He/she might create fake accounts on the social network and pretend to be your friend/family members who are far away.
Another negative consequence is that you may get addicted to the computer(as said before).You may be too distracted about the social network that you may not put in effort to study for exams or do your home work. You may spend too much time on the computer that you may not spend quality time with your family members. This shall also affect your way of attitude in your daily work. It could also affect your sleep and how you project your voice (for oral). What’s more, the social network is meant for communicating for work and good uses! Thanks for reading!
Victoria (6A),
Why do you think people would feel weird when they talk face to face?
Mdm Rozana
Kuan Yu,
After making a 'confession' online, would you react the same way when you meet them face to face?
One might feel comfortable interacting online as others are unable to see their true self in person. I personally feel that face to face interaction is lacking nowadays.
Mdm Rozana
Kabir,
I agree with you. It's alright to share information online, but not publicly sharing your problems.
Mdm Rozana
Austin,
The reaction can come in positive and negative ways. On top of that, it depends on the nature of the 'problem' that you post online.
Mdm Rozana
i think spending too much time in facebook takes you away from reality
Hannah 5C
i think that it is a negative consequences as it will be like sharing it to everyone to know your problems.
