Does the advent of the Internet make teenagers stupid?

Seriously!Does the advent of the Internet make teenagers stupid?
in general it has made people smarter, but it has changed the types of inteligence that people have. now days people are more INTUITIVE (look up a clinical definition for that). also i think it has made people more lazy, because there are so many interesting things out there that you can be doing on the internet they are less likely to take an interest in school or work.Does the advent of the Internet make teenagers stupid?
their attention is directed towards the erroneous and unproductive information.


the issue of censorship should be explored yet again as a ';tough love'; mechanism for teens because at times teen need firm direction.


i'm 19 an i agree that older people who have experienced calumny should feel empathy towards these naive and contrite beings. the world is incredibly ';competitive'; is just a way of saying the world is extremely selfish.


positive information is extremely subtle but is in fact available through the media.


your comment is torrentially incorrect as the minors are not becoming stupid, nobody is stupid, they are just unmotivated, and invest their time in frivolous things. you have to take into account angst, family background and circumstances.





ps. answer my question its open.
Internet has made every one more intelligent with the information it gives. They are mush more mature and intelligent than those who were not having access to the net.There are drawbacks but if you bring up the child well he will grow much more mature because of the information explosion.
It allows them to be more social, more often. Which in turn means they are spending more time socializing than doing other things... like studying, for example.





But to those who know how to study USING the internet... it basically creates geniuses.
Smarter in some ways, maybe. Although I am not sure knowing the latest Hollywood gossip counts. Definitely has aided in the loss of imagination and physical activity!
what's an advent?





(xD...really I don't know, but I hope I'm not stupid =P)





I don't game or anything :)
For some, I'm pretty sure it does. Don't forget weak and pale, also,
