Introduction
Research Question
How has Ask.fm affect the lives of teenagers in the aspects of usage,
popularity, and cyberbullying?
Thesis Statement
Teenagers are prone to bad-decision making, so when they escape to their
online world, they are going to do things that are not very wise. Ask.fm is
one of the ways they can do that. They can leave anonymous questions
about personal topics and even transfer that to hate (cyberbullying).

Conclusion
Your chances of ever coming across a teenager who has never had any
experience on social media before are slim to
none. Since teenagers are prone to bad-decision making, a lot can go
wrong in their social media world. As we
conducted a survey using Ask.fm as an exmaple of social media, we
can see that most teenagers will continue using
their accounts even when they do not percieve it as an important
activity, and to those that do this, they will often
open their accounts at least once a day or so. Many teenagers will also
continue using their accounts even after hearing
negative things about the site. Some teenagers will also feel some sort
of accomplishment when they get more
followers and/or likes. And with a site like this, your identity can be
hidden when you ask a question. Most teengaers
