Social media can play a very impactful role in an Individual’s life. There are two parts of social media; the good and the bad. The good include, positivity, acceptance, and an overall good environment. However, the bad include bullying, slander, and harsh language. In order for people to mitigate these effects they must (1) ignore the negativity projected from others, (2) learn to accept that bad people exist and there’s not much they can do about it, (3) be kind and respectful to others because you never know what someone is going through. (4) if you see someone going through something try your best to help out and listen.
