ARE TEENAGERS LESS SOCIABLE?

Some people say that teenagers are losing social abilities. They think that they are less sociable than before because they're losing face-to-face contact. but, why do they say that?

First of all, everybody knows that nowadays we're living in a virtual world. Moreover, those who usually use Facebook, Twitter or WhatsApp call it "life 2.0" because they spend more time there than in real life or "life 1.0". Secondly, social networking sites are making it easier to communicate with other people via Internet than face-to-face. Lastly, teenagers say that it's faster and more comfortable to talk with a mobile phone or texting someone than doing it face-to-face. What's more, their social lives are based on that.

In conclusion, from my point of view that's true. I agree with that and I think we're becoming less sociable, but I think that it isn't that bad, maybe because I'm a teenager.
