re: Do you think social media has changed people (especially the youth)?

It has definitely created a "look at me" way of life for the average person. I feel like people do everything now with the intention of posting it on social media to show how cool they are, or how much fun they are having, as oppose to you know ACTUALLY having fun.

I agree, but people were doing this way before social media. We all crave reinforcement. We just get it in different ways.

Maybe I like to make observations about the behavior of others and receive positive reinforcement based on their accuracy on a message board, so I can't say I'm really any better than they are.
