A new study suggests that social media sites are going to create a new phenomenon known as "Facebook depression". The American Academy of Pediatrics recently warned parents that networking websites are going to affect on their children’s mental health. Report co-author Gwenn O’Keefe describes the way how social interaction is changing: "For some teens, social media is going to be the primary way how they are going to interact socially. They are not going to the mall or a friend’s house" she says. Ms O'Keeffe adds: "A big part of this generation's social and emotional development is going to occur on the Internet and on cellphones. Parents are going to need to understand these technologies, so they can relate to their children's online world, and control them."

The report says it is important for parents to know how social media sites are going to affect children and that the Internet is not always going to be a healthy environment for kids. The writers also ask to parents to be careful with cyber bullying, and sexing. Parents are going to take an active role and discuss things like bullying, privacy. Parents are feeling down because of what is happening on Facebook. A recent study says that 22 percent of teenagers log on to a social media site more than 10 times a day and more than half at least once a day. There are some conflicts about if Facebook helps young people or not.  Is facebook going to allow young people to express themselves? Or is facebook going to isolate them from society?
