Has Internet Done Us Good Or Bad


''Has the internet done us good or bad?" There is no answer to this question as many people have their own point of views about it. It may harm small children, by meeting strangers on MIRC. These internet programmes can harm most of the children as there are cases on it. But internet may also help others to do on their research or educate themselves by using the internet. Sometimes, pop ups may cause small kids to be ''polluted'' in their brains. Communication is another resource that can be use in the internet. Talking on the phone and also another source but which one do your prefer a phone or a internet chat?


Many students neglect their studies because of the internet games. Their parents disagreeed with them of online gaming as their study will drop drastically. Also, internet help mixing young teenages around. Girls meeting a man five years older than them. If those men were not decent, what would have happen to them?


Cyber bullying is also another harm to others. In the chat room, people may tend to hurt other's feeling and they may be emotionally unstable. Hurting themselves is not surprising after all. Cyber bullying is forbitted in Singapore but many people still does it. These act can be handled by the police.


On the other side of the coin, internet is also good as they can do their research on the internet for their project for school. They can also do their online homework if there is another SARS outbreak. Internet can also help student's who are weak in their studies to do some examples on the internet or research.


Internet can also help students who does not know how to do their work to e-mail to their teacher to teach the steps on solving the question, the student will then continue it. Having the internet is also great as you can do lots of things in the internet. For example, Blogging, it can express your feelings inside and your parents does not know about it.


Nevertheless, Internet got it's pros and cons. It's all depend on how we use it. Using it correctly make the internet a good thing but if some inconsiderate people use it for harm, it will not be a advantage after-all.
