The Role of the Social Networks, between a Utility and a New Addiction

The reality of social networks in recent years has taken on new and enriching scenarios, to learn more about the problems and complex dynamics of life that surround the generations of preadolescents and adolescents. This work has matured over several years, interacting with schools in the Campania region (southern Italy), meeting and talking with teachers, parents and students, observing the reality that surrounds them. The territory of Naples and its province was the one in which the activity was mainly carried out. It has been found that the new frontiers of youth language find their maximum form of exposure in sharing, exhibition, media "exposure", through the channel of the narration of their daily life "live" (most of the time), often it implies a high probability of incurring dangers and dangers that are difficult to manage, as "children" of an age in which to exhibit is in conformity with the historical moment. The definition given by the experts is "Digital Natives", "Digital Immigrants" are adults, who have a different and less fluid approach compared to the reality of youth. Dangers, pitfalls and others are amplified through the simple sharing of one's own experiences. This work benefited from the help of various professional figures, which made sure that some difficult aspects and contexts could emerge. Some problems of this reality linked to social networks are distinguished in a more specific and authentic way.
