Internet addiction is prevalent among youths who often do not have the desired level of health literacy.

But, what is internet addiction?

Internet addiction is characterized by excessive or poorly controlled preoccupations, urges or behaviours regarding computer use and internet access that lead to impairment or distress.

Some online users were becoming addicted to the Internet in the same way that others become addicted to drugs or alcohol, and the consequences are manifested in the social, work, and family life of a person. Furthermore, there are many dangers on the Internet, and the protection of children and young people requires good cooperation and communication between children, parents, schools, local community, and society as a whole, systematically acting at all levels of prevention and protection of children from possible harmful effects of the new electronic media.

The importance of media and information literacy for individuals are multiple. First and foremost, media and information literacy helps us become wiser consumers of media as well as responsible producers of our own media. Along those same lines, teaching media literacy helps to foster critical thinking individuals. This type of thinking can eventually become second nature, which will help them in many areas as they grow older. The focus is more on strengthening process skills, not content knowledge.

oh but my darling,

what if you fly?

I want you to know

I'm a mirrorball

I can change everything about me to fit in

I am not like the regulars

The masquerade revelers

Drunk as they watch my shattered edges glisten

Hush

When no one is around, my dear

You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

Hush

I know they said the end is near

But I'm still on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

And they called off the circus

Burned the disco down

When they sent home the horses

And the rodeo clowns

I'm still on that tightrope

I'm still trying everything to get you laughing at me

I'm still a believer but I don't know why

I've never been a natural

All I do is try, try, try

I'm still on that trapeze

I'm still trying everything

To keep you looking at me

Because I'm a mirrorball

I'll show you every version of myself

I'm a mirrorball

Tonight
