Speech 2:
Most social media platforms have relatively easy processes to follow in order to sign up. For this reason, most people with internet access upload and share photos into social media platforms to express themselves and to build their online personal profiles. According to Binhalail, people use their profile pictures to depict various feelings and emotions in real time (2000). In other cases, people use their profiles to rebel against the things they face in real life. An example is Muslim women who are not allowed to exhibit parts of their bodies in public. For this reason, the women find appropriate ways to present themselves in order to win favor with peers and other members of society. The same should be taught in a very proper way to children in order to diversify on culture. Consequently, social media profiles are meant to depict the best in us that we would not mind showing the world. The ability to save multiple pictures like in the traditional albums enables people to tell intimate stories using pictures. Digital storage of photos is also important. In many ways, the stories told by the photos in social media lead to the perceptions other users have about us. An example is having photos of adventurous trips. One would think that the trips are frequent but the reality is that the photos may be from a single holiday vacation, taken 3 years ago and delivered to the profile in bits. In many ways, the pictures posted on our profiles aid in the overall perception most users have of others. Children should be taught correct expression from an early age.

Speech 3:
Adolescent years are known as formative years. It is during this time that most people get to understand their minds and bodies. However, most of the development process is influenced by a number of external factors. In this case, teenagers in the internet age are observed to spend significant time on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook. From these platforms, the teenagers get to share, read and comment on various things happening to other teenagers across the globe. However, young people create their profiles based on the popular culture around them at the time (Davis, 2012). It is during profile building that some teenagers misunderstand other young people’s profiles and try to emulate the latter. The problem is also observed to crop from excessive use of the internet by young people. Physical activity has reduced significantly due to the availability of gaming consoles, the internet and various streaming services enabled on there. Consequently, constant use of the internet leads to false perceptions between real life and popular culture. More so, the teenage stage is observed to be the most susceptible to various suggestions. In this way, the suggestions on fashion, lifestyle and life advice gotten from the internet translates to daily life. An example is the music videos depicting drug use and vulgarity as cool. The videos lead to major decisions that teenagers make that prove to be more out of perception than understanding. The above is meant to show the importance of regulating technology and its exposures from early childhood.
