Benefits and dangers of the internet


As we know everything has it’s good and bad sides. Now let’s see advantages and disadvantages of using the internet by children.
D: While using the internet they can find a lot of screens with games and the rest of them are fighting games. But there are a lot of games for checking knowledge. Instead of learning some new information, they usually use it for having fun. Even we can see on the blogs that they wrote: “I got the highest score on WarCraft  game”. Cause of this they usually spend their time for nothing and waste time. As they spend time before the computer screen, they may damage their eyesight. That’s why parents should always take control. Another example is being lazy. Imagine that teacher gave them a task to write an essay or something like this. They can easily find it from the internet and copy it. Then pupils try to submit it without reading. As a result not only children but students also can become addicted to the Internet. But there is no guarantee that the information is true. It can be just comments. It’s better to read books. 
A: Imagine that someone came from another region and doesn’t know how to find the place. If there is nobody to ask, internet may come for help. With the help of  the internet they can learn foreign languages, find any unfamiliar word’s definition. And for improving knowledge children can join to some groups, chat with foreigners and share with their ideas. Even they may get information about their culture and origins. If they have internet on their cell phones, they can use it anywhere for searching necessary information. For making presentation pupils can use it for taking pictures and templates for designing it. 
As a conclusion I want to say that parents shouldn’t give freedom for children on using internet
