Who else thinks social media like text message, facebook, etc is going to increase social anixety in people?

[HLK :)]

I completely agree with you and your professor!

People these days are so used to forming relationships sitting bravely behind a gadget screen that when it comes to actual face to face interaction they simply dont know how to cope.

Oh and believe its only going to get worse. Children as young as 10 with facebook accounts, Blackberry messenger etc. All that time theyre spending tapping away at a screen with virtual friends they are missing out on vital human interaction.
When i was younger, to make friends you had to throw yourself out there and use your personality and friendliness to make friends, these days people dont care about actual real friends as long as they can be nosey to people they dont even really like on Facebook, or whatever other sites they use.
