Teenagers can't live without social networking

Britain’s teenagers are so addicted to social networking, that they are developing withdrawl symptoms if they don’t get their fix.

New research from Yahoo! Has revealed that 36 per cent of teenagers who use networking sites become stressed and short tempered if they can’t access them.

A massive 71 per cent felt cut off from daily life when they couldn’t log on, and 70 per cent of 16 to 25 year olds feel unable to managed a balanced lifestyle without them.

Without being able to use the sites they reported feeling disorganised, stressed, short tempered and frustrated.
