Cyber-bullying impact negatively to younger generation


Post 5


The usage of social media is inescapable, and people are becoming addicted to it. Undoubtedly some are using it actively while others are using it passively, but “the passive usage of the social media is not good such as scrolling passively on social media sites rather than engaging ourselves in real-life relationships” (5 ways social media will change employees by 2030, 2017). As the younger generation is getting more engaged in technology, so they are facing the worst situations. The usage of social media among the young generation is too high so “children who will be born in 2030, they would not be able to expect the world which was without the technology” (5 ways social media will change employees by 2030, 2017). Moreover, the excessive usage of social media causes some issues such as cyber-bullying. The cyber-bullying will impact more negatively to the younger generation and it will make harder for the victims to come out of the situation as well as it will be difficult for parents and teachers to spot the situation of their children in 2030 (5 ways social media will change employees by 2030, 2017). Cyber-bullying and its negative impacts will continue to grow up at a higher rate which could life threatening and there will not be quick solutions to fix that problem.

Cyberbullying in near Future







        Cyber bullying is one of the main concerns in the present generation. Cyber bullying negatively influences on all ages, races and gender of people. Everyday news of innocent victims become headlines of the newspapers. It seems that judgement, meanness, nasty posts, abusive language are never ending periods (Hoffman, 2016, para.1). People are aware that when they mean to other people and intentionally hurt their sentiments with mental and physical torture. So, why it won’t stop? Why people keep doing this hurtful act of spoiling others life with abusive behaviours (Hoffman, 2016, para.2). The author Hoffman asked these questions to the readers and predicts that is appears that cyber bullying will not stop in the near future. According to recent research, almost 30% of teens have been victimised   due to bullies. It does not mean that adults were excluded in this study. Adults were also bullied on some form of cyberbullying such as dislike messages through instant messaging or social media sites (Hoffman, 2016, para.3).
 As mentioned in the article the definition and sequences of the cyber bullying could be different for each individual. some might take it as humour, or some might trigger to do suicide (Hoffman, 2016, para.4).  it is very hard to halt cyber bullying. If cyberbully receives appreciation from their peers, they kept on doing that hurtful bullies as encouraged to do. In the same way, if victim surrender to that unacceptable behaviours, it signals to the cyberbully to continue their misbehaviour. It is very important to raise voice for yourself and stood against all these bullies (Hoffman, 2016, para.5). In near future, if we want to stop bullies, we have to act immediately to shut down this unwanted and disrespectful behaviour. Parents and other Signiant’s in life can teach children to raise their voice against this cybercrime (Hoffman, 2016, para.10). It is expected that by 2030, cyberbullying will continue to hurt people as these are future predictions and it could be change if one take initiative to stop bullies. We should teach children to be kid to others and ask for help from their adults when needed (Hoffman, 2016, para.11).

Cyber-bullying will impact more personally



Post 4


We have seen a significant change in social media since 2010. In the past few years, people were more attracted to some of the social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Yahoo. Since then there is a huge number of social media sites that have been discovered and got a huge response from the public (Wellons, 2014). Nowadays even the younger generation is more aware of these sites and is in contact with their useful ways. As every coin has two sides these social networking sites are very useful but have some negative impacts as well. As these social networking sites are getting huge response nowadays and expecting more developed technologies which can change human life significantly in 2030. As an individual nowadays share each and everything about their routines on these social sites such as Instagram and snap chat. We are expecting more of these kinds of social networking technological gadgets as a wearable device (Wellons, 2014). These wearable devices can track and trace an individual’s physical activities and can be a part of huge and harmful cyber-bullying. Which will be life-threatening in 2030. This cyber-bullying will be even worse in 2030. Cyber-bullying is having a negative impact as this will affect life in more personal ways such as personal relationships and communications in 2030.

Social media affecting personal relationships


Post 3

Social media has become very advanced and most of the population is active on social media. The effects of social on personal relationship and communication can be seen in every culture in the society. The way of communication has bee changed, people prefer more online conversations and relations rather than face to face interactions. They know that “face to face conversations or relations are more reliable, strong and true but still people prefer online communication which has a very weak foundation and no trust” (Keller, 2013, p. 4). Some researchers believe that “social media likely will continue to become increasingly integrated into the normal human experience like most of the communication technologies that preceded it” (Keller, 2013, p. 17). People will keep relying on social to have some connections with new people online rather than by face, but they will take these relationships more seriously than real ones and these will have weak ties as they do not have any idea whether the user is real or fake. Moreover, social media will keep people engage in communication by making connections with unknown people and gradually hey will be able to know that how to identify the person is real or fake as well as “they will be able to know how to use them for good and for bad” (Keller, 2013, p. 17).

Interaction among people in the future decade

Post 2
The usage of social media is increasing day by day in our daily lives in the past decade which is also known as “electronic form of communication”. It has made communication among people easier. There are some issues of identity, status and power that are related to social media and these are consistently affecting the way of communication and personal relationships. As the number of individuals has been increased on social media and in the future some societies will have 100% adults as a user of social media. People will have more friends and followers within a decade which will lead to new relationships such as professional, friendly or romantic. But sometimes people change their identity online and make fake accounts may be to impress others which are affecting the communication and relationships (Seidman, 2014). Talking to new people is challenging and by 2030 still it will be challenging to interact with people online, because people will not be able to see them by face and will not be able to know that the person who they are talking as friend, professionally or intimately are real or not, so, “they will demand more governmental control over the privacy settings to keep themselves, their communication and relationships secure”(CMA, 2016). But still, people will have more connections and will depend profoundly on social media to rapidly grow their number of friends, followers, find friends or someone as their partner.

Cyber-bullying would not stop



Post 1

Incidents of bullying on social media have been increased. Nowadays people are using nasty, evil words, fights through chats or posting something personal about victims. According to Khoffman (2016) research clarifies that more than 30% of teenagers have been affected by cyberbullies (para. 2). Cyber-bullying includes hate messages or bullied texts which could lead another person to suicide as well. The author also says that cyber-bullying will be hard to stop in 2030 as it is becoming a vast problem as the time elapses. She says, “once cyber-bullying is started, hackers hurting others and got a reaction and keep on doing the same thing, moreover they will continuously screenshot, repost the victims’ information which will not help to stop cyber-bullying in 2030” (Khoffman, 2016, p.4). Sometimes teens and pre-teens fall victim to cyber-bullying, they are tortured online through messages, postings. Personal relationships are also affected because of the enormous usage of social media such as communication between parents and children is decreased and they do not teach them to monitor unusual activities on their accounts. So, “children spend most of their time on social media with the supervision or observation of their phones and continuity of this will put their child in the worst situation” (Khoffman, 2016, p. 5).

Due to revolution in social media and escalation in its use, many negative consequences are becoming
a point of concern. One of them is cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is an issue in which a person's life
and his relationships are getting impacted the most (Garett et al. 2016, p.1). As every age group is

health issues, developmental issues or even people are committing suicides, thus, directly affecting
the personal lives of every generation (Garett et al. 2016, p.1). Health consequences occurring in
teenagers and adolescents are leaving a bad impact on their parents, thus social media is changing
relationships and will continue to change in 2030 (Garett, et al. 2016, p.1). Apart from this, cyber
bullying is giving birth to abusive behaviour (Garett et al. 2016, p.1). On social media, a lot of
people are leading to use abusive language and others are adapting this behavior which is changing
our society and relationship status, will continue is 2030 (Garett et al. 2016, p.1). She identified that
depression is an issue which is going to increase with the increase in cyberbullying (Garett et al. 2016
, p.1). It is becoming a disorder and can not be controlled until the use of social media is reduced

media will be reached at its peak, which is bringing the issue of depression among all the generations,

Experts predictions on social media in 2030

Post 4 -
The sheer volume of material on social media platforms makes it an immense challenge for the AEC to monitor political advertising.
social media has changed the world in various ways. Now relationships are also getting affected with
the access use of social media. Data classified the number of users which are 1.3 billion users on
facebook and 270 million on twitter, it explains  how powerful is social media (Wellons, 2014, para. 4)?
It is inevitable that if so many people are active on social media and will continue to do it, personal
relationships will get changed in both positive and negative ways (Wellons, 2014, para. 4). In provided
link there are predictions by some of the experts towards social media in 2030. Kimzey (social media
strategist) identified that people have the power of decision making due to social media and the
thermostats on social media knows about us like what we want, our preferences and data we usually
browse. In upcoming time our interactions will decrease with people from each genre  because we will
be able to choose what content we want, from whom we want and when we want. Also, an opportunity
to choose the friends and partners will reduce our face to face interactions as we can stay in touch with
them online (Kimzey, 2014, para. 13). Moreover, Melody Kramer, NPR Digital strategist and editor at
NPR(2014) states that social media is becoming an important part of human’s life as we are considering
it as a part of us with each passing day (para. 15). she said this trend will be increasing day by day,
until 2030 people will be more addicted to meet people online instead, meeting face to face, thus, it will
harm personal relationships in 2030 (Kramer, 2014, para 15). She describes, in 2030 social media will
be considered as fabric of our clothes which can affect our personal relationships directly, because of
social media will be more important for you then relationships will get affected automatically (Kramer
, 2014, para 15).

Physical Communication will decreased by 2030


Post 4- 




 No one has ever realised how much time people spend on their smartphones by scrolling up and down checking messages and online status. The world has become a virtual society, where everyone is busy on tablets, computers and cell phones. People spent most of their time on social media sites watching and participating on social media pages (Cohen, 2017, para.1).  This extreme use of social media sites and other technologies not only leave adverse effects on the people’s health but also on their personal relationships (Cohen, 2017, para.2). In few decades, social media has become one of powerful media sources to connect people instantly. Being a powerful tool, social media holds a responsibility towards its users and power always does not mean constructive and positivism. Sometimes, it affects negatively on personal relations and our way of communication with others (Cohen, 2017, para.4). People losing their interest by interacting people in real life. They tend to communicate with them digitally. Constant use of social media, refreshing screens, loading status are some of the examples which occupied people attention. This continuous activity provides very short time people to do bodily interaction (Cohen, 2017, para.7).
It is very hard to predict how the future will mold in terms of personal relationships and communication. Hypothetically, today’s generation is so busy texting and messaging digitally that the loss interest in physical communication. In the next decade by 2030, it could be expected that social media will take place all the communication and decreased the warmth of personal relations (Cohen, 2017, para.10).

Once online dating was criticised and assumed derogatory act of finding partners through the internet but now this activity is making business of over $2 million. According to a recent study, it is claimed that almost 40 million of american citizens have had used dating sites to find partners. More than half of  ameircan couples encounter online in between 2005 and 2012 (Max,K para, 2). The era of dating began in 1995 when dating site Match.com was launched and received appreciation from its users . Later this chain of dating websites increased and many other dating websites introduced such as eHarmony , OkCupid in 2000 and 2004. The most recent developments in dating sites can be seen by presenting dating apps on mobiles and offer users instant handy tool to find partners.  Few dating apps on mobiles such as Tinder and Hinge are very popular among teenagers and adults (Max,K para, 4). The experts are still working on to determine the pros and cons of this development in dating process. The present demand and boosting fashion of online dating will remain popular or will lose its charm by 2030 is debatable topic among experts (Max,K para, 6). Experts determining and comparing the facts that will future dating span will become better than 1995 or worse than 1995 in 2030. Hypothetically, the potential progress and development of dating future in 2030 is questionable (Max,K para, 7).  If look into 2014 few years ago, the social media and technologies were used differently as compared to now. Same as it is expected that in 2030 the dating sites will revolutionised and alter dramatically in comparison to past (Max,K para, 7).
