    I think Facebook addiction has become a headache for Parents & several countries over the past decade. Facebook is world's largest social Network. I agree that It is a source of knowledge, brand building, commerce, Knowledge , education and much more but It also has a darker side: Addiction. Facebook addiction has become a head ach for parents and School Authorities. The South Korean government recently estimated that the country has over 2 million citizens addicted to the Internet.Though Facebook addiction is still not a cause of concern in India, is fast rising in India. What do you proud Indians think about it ? Do you think Facebook addiction is a disease?

    Addiction to anything is bad. Facebook is a platform to remain connected with friends and relatives as well as share thoughts and views and carry out healthy discussions. It is true that people are getting addicted to Facebook and its not just the students but you can find people of all ages. I don't think it is a disease because it provides an opportunity to socialize, know about the happenings in the world. This addiction should be controlled but it is not a disease that needs to be cured.

    Facebook is most popular among all the social media networks. It is spreading like a wild fire and is being liked and used by individuals of almost all ages. It has been seen that people are getting addicted to Facebook for its wide usage. It cannot be called a disease but it is like any other addiction. More than calling it an addiction it is a craze.
