This has recently gotten a lot of attention in my community. Basically, my school is extremely anti-Facebook, to the point that they expel girls who use it. (If it makes any difference, I don't have it.)

 

I'm just curious; what's so wrong with Facebook? What makes it different from any other social media? And can't it be used for good, too?

It's been proven to do all levels of damage to people, teenagers included - teenagers especially - in terms of being heavily influenced by, and often even introduced to and getting involved with, unsavory characters. (Forget for now that it is a terrible waste of time.)
