Some doctors and child welfare experts are worried about the use of social media in children and children.

British clinician Randan Chatterjee says that he got many evidence of the relationship between teenage teens and their social media use.

A group of US child welfare experts recently wrote a letter to the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg. They call it 'messenger kids' to stop messaging apps for kids.1518402002-picsay.jpg

They said, it is irresponsible to encourage less than 13 year olds to use this platform.

They said, they have come to the conclusion that due to social media, all of the abnormal changes in adolescent teenagers' mentality, the 10 year old girl is also suffering from her physical traits.

Dr. Randan Chatterjee says that he once received a 16-year-old teenager - who was sent to the hospital's emergency department after cutting his own hands and feet.

"At first I thought he would give depression-resistant medicines. But after I talked to him, I used to think that social media has a negative effect on his health. "

In the year 2012, the Royal Society of Public Health conducted a survey of about one and a half thousand adolescents aged between 11 and 15 years.

It shows that Snapechat and Instagram are among the most poignant and anxious people in their minds. 7 out of 10 people said that due to the Instagram, they were upset with their own bodies. Half of the 14 to 14-year-olds have said that their mental anxiety and turmoil increased due to Facebook.

Two-thirds respondents said that due to Facebook, cyber bulling or online insult-harassment tend to be more serious.

Dr. Chatterjee gave a simple solution to the boy coming to him - he must reduce the use of social media, not more than an hour before going to bed at night. But it can be extended later this week.

"Six months later, his condition began to noticeably be good. I received a letter from her mother that she is getting much pleasure in school, and she is also meeting with the local people. "

He says, the social media has negative effects on mental health. It is a big problem and some rules need to be done in this regard. "

Psychiatrists Louie Theodosio says, "In the middle of an appointment with him two or three years ago, a child was using their phone or texting - it was very unusual. But now it is a very common matter. "

"The kids are spending too much time with their phones. Teenagers are suffering from depression, anxiety or other mental problems due to social media - the number of such cases has increased. "

He said these children are living in a fantasy world, in which their physical health is getting worse.

He also said that situation for parents is very difficult. He also heard of the guardian who sleeps with the WiFi router himself - in which children can not use the internet at midnight.

Experts advise parents to monitor and restrict the use of children in many ways in children. Companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Apple and Snapchat have said in their response to these allegations that they are taking various steps in this regard.
