THE SOCIAL NETWORKS: NEW CHALLENGE OR NEW ADDICTION?

Annalisa Colucci ; Nursing Home “Santa Filomena”, Mugnano del Cardinale, Italy

Abstract

The reality of Social networks provides a fascinating and enhancing opportunity to understand the issues and life dynamics of
generations of pre-adolescents and adolescents; This study has matured over three years of work in the schools of Campania
(southern Italy), observing all the provinces, with a predominance of those of the Neapolitan territory. It has been found that the
language of the boys finds its maximal expression in using social media to share, exhibit, and tell their experience of living every day
their daily lives, with a high probability of encountering very interesting pitfalls and dangers… because they are "children" of a
period when to exhibit themselves is in accordance with current fashion. These dangers and pitfalls are amplified by simply sharing,
and sharing this work with professionals has helped to better monitor some contexts and difficulties which have emerged with
difficulty and have helped to shed light on more specific and authentic issues regarding this reality.
