PLAY SMART AND EXERCISE SELF-CONTROL WHEN IT COMES TO ICQ

ICQ is popular among youths because they enjoy chatting with different kinds of people.

It is an exciting and entertaining pastime, but if we over- indulge in it, we will not have enough time for our homework and revision. It will affect our studies.

Another disadvantage is that some students play all night and do not have enough energy for school the next day. This damages our health. Staring at a computer screen for long periods of time is also unhealthy for our eyes.

Another thing we have to worry about is meeting bad people on ICQ. They might use bad language or have indecent thoughts.

If our ICQ friends want to meet us, we should think twice about it. If we decide to meet them, we should go with some friends. Some people have been kidnapped by people they meet on ICQ. We should finish our homework and studies before playing ICQ.

We should also try not to spend too much time playing it and should be careful when it comes to meeting with strangers.
