Media and Juvenile Development

What I want to talk about (1) Why today's young people are succeptible to information on media? Within a recent few decades, digitization of information is rapidly becomming common. Almost every person, even a high school student have now their own smartphones and laptops, which enable surfing the information in Internet. And information like train or bus timetables, weather news, and local community, politics, finacial news are easily accessible by such devices, reducing the time of getting information. However, this kinds of digitization have also side effect which is not desirable for development of children and teenagers. For example, some negative campaigns by TV programs can undermine young people minds. Plus some radical information like violence and sexual drama deteriorate could give a trauma to young people. Thus, Mass Media should be enogh careful not to exceed the borderline.
