Preface My past experiences with research writing in school have been very mediocre in my teachers' point of view. They always see a fault in my work, in both Elementary School and High School (in both Jamaica and the United States). I never understood why because I had so much confidence about my narrative writing skills and students enjoyed it. To be honest that is my favorite type of writing but teachers have killed my confidence in writing over the years so I lost interest in writing anything. But now I have slowly started to get myself back into the writing world, with the motivation from my teacher who shows a lot of passion in it, which I really feel inspired by. My Research topic is (What are the best ways to eliminate toxic behavior on [insert social media app/service]?). This topic matters because in modern society, technology is our basic form of our everyday lives, with one being our cell phones. We as humans are prone to being on our phones constantly making it our source of entertainment but it seems to be an issue because a lot of people become addicted to using them through social media. My Research Question is( Why is it so bad to overly use social media?). My genre will be an Essay and will also be in MLA format. My thesis statement is "Social could be both a good and a bad thing". This essay targets the audience of all social media users. 4 Reasons Why Social Media Has Become So Toxic and What to Look for Next- Tobin Brogunierhttps://www.entrepreneur.com/article/328749
What is the main theme (message) of my argument? Answer in thesis statement form.
