We live in an information-rich world. A modern person of our society cannot live a day without a global network. The main problem at the moment is that the younger generation spends more time on social networks.For teenagers, the social network has become a tool of self-expression. Communication is limited to a certain circle of people. For the psyche of a teenager, excessive infatuation can have a bad effect on his development. A teenager ceases to communicate with peers and closes in on himself. If a teenager has problems in communication, the complex develops with greater force. And as a result, there are difficulties in adapting to real life.Leading scientists in the field of psychology and neurophysiology have stated about the negative impact of social networks on people's consciousness. According to their data, teenagers, communicating on social networks, receive more negativity.There are several reasons for Internet addiction. The first of them: working on social networks irritates the pleasure centers in our brain. A teenager experiences pleasant emotions, every time he reads a friendly comment under his photo, gets a "like", etc. The desire to re-receive such emotions pulls him back to social networks, forcing him to spend more and more time there. Another reason is the peculiarities of information assimilation when working in multi-user web platforms. For example, a teenager sitting in contact receives a lot of heterogeneous information in small portions over a short period of time. A teenager has a number of problems: decreased concentration, information dependence, stress, fatigue, decreased intelligence, alienation.

Therefore, parents should pay more attention to the behavior of their children, not to allow the teenager to be excessively carried away by social networks.
