Socialization and Digital Media Addiction in juveniles

Abstract

This study talks about the relationship of digital media addiction and socialization, especially the juvenile. This study takes into consideration the role and status of socialization in instilling virtuous values and principles in children and forming them properly to contribute to building their society in which they live. Should they fail to perform effectively within the norms of society, they become easy targets for any threats that stand in their way. Addiction, digital media addiction in particular, is similar to injecting poison into honey because it hides the negative effects on individuals in return for receiving digital practice. It may often be with the assistance of parents because they are the ones who provide digital technology. They do so for the purpose of education or entertainment, but due to their ignorance of its risks, they will push their children to deep hole.
