This is rubbish. Social media is helpful in both the good way and bad way, There's no way to go about it.
I have learnt alot from social media that school hasn't taught me. Not everything you do in life is from school.

You should edit the title to "5 reasons why I THINK NIGERIAN SOME secondary school students BELOW 18 don't need social media"

You'd be shocked to know how much kids (even at elementary school) learn from social media.
What is this one typing?

You wanted to correct someone and ended up typing gibberish

Secondary school per se has no age restrictions. I think this should be binding on age and not the institution.
If we aspire to be like individuals of developed countries, we have to emulate some of their ideologies. What we call the 'evil' social media are actually projects undertaken by kids of which age are easily found in Nigerian secondary school.

With how insecure Nigeria is, social media helps out in maintaining contact with persons without exposing the child to the toxic elements in the environs.

It is only natural that as a child grows older, he /she tends to learn more from peers. Being on social media is subject to a lot of things. The absence of these conditions mean they'll always have time for other things. Moreover, social media is just social media. The parents remain the parents and their basic law in the house holds supreme.

With divorce and daily hustle tearing families apart, social media helps provide a means to make sense of all of that, giving a cheaper alternative to communicate amongst themselves than whatever phone bills can offer.

Not to say social media has no evils. But we can't be too particular about such things.
I agree with you on this
Re: 5 Reasons Secondary School Students Don’t Need Social Media by Reinah(f): 5:58am On Nov 07, 2018
I totally agree with the post, the disadvantages of getting them a phone at that stage outweighs the advantages.

I started using a mobile at 8-9, registered on FB at 12, I used to sneak my aunt's phone to browse and I can't tell how much all that affected me. I'm making sure same doesn't happen to my siblings.

If you are blessed enough, a general PC in the house or your personal system can help them do researches on assignments. I think the best thing is to let them have a phone they use after school for a limited time and also on weekends..that should help them from the temptation of getting a phone without your knowledge.


Las las, there is no manual to parenting. Phone or no phone, pray that nature smiles on you with your children.

Let's be Frank, they don't need it at all.

It's a complete distraction for them

At their teenage age, if care is not taken, they will derail and loose focus

Rubbish post undecided

My younger brother in JSS3 is learning Physics thru WhatsApp together with the rest of his classmates.

After explaining in class, their teacher still uses WhatsApp group platform to explain further and the students also express themselves in ways they couldn't in class.

This is 21st century, OP don't get left behind.

Sometimes I wonder if I am in the right location of the planet...

Why would someone in his/her right sense say such

This is 21st century (IT age, not Stone age) for goodness sake.

Anyone who isn't compatible with the program of the AGE should immediately discard him/herself from the system let the citizens of the GENERATION inherit their benefits.

Mad idiots adamant to evolve with trend everywhere.

5 reasons Secondary school students don't need Social media in STONE AGE GENERATION.
