Is internet addiction really a problem?

MARKY OO2

A problem? No way! From what I’ve seen it’s something which people do when they’re bored. It isn’t an “addiction”. The problem is that real life isn’t as interesting as the Internet! It’s more fun online!

I agree with Marky. It isn’t a problem if it’s entertaining. The internet is less addictive than TV. Anyway, in my experience people can be obsessive about everything.

HEYGAZZA!

Marky’s got a point, but I think the Internet can be an addiction and some people need help. I’ve got a friend who’s completely disconnected from real life. In most of his free time, he plays games online and when he isn’t playing he’s in the chat rooms. He’s failed a lot of exams and he’s less interested in everything. It’s like an illness. He needs to talk to someone.

Well, In my opinion I think that internet is addictive but it isn’t a problem, because the TV is the same.All people love spend a few time in front of the screen and watch the a news, comedies..but other people love spending their time in front of the other screen and talk with friends, play games...Talking to friends online, chats rooms are a problem because you need to be connected and talk with other people for along time, this suppose a problem. But in Internet there are more problems for example, there are a lot of people who uses Internet and some of them are “hackers”.
