Social media plays an immensely important role in the context of contemporary time. However, while children are compared to sponge for absorbing things quickly, social media could have some adverse effect on them. Childhood is the time of imbibing essential skills and qualities, which will in later life help the child abundantly for showing complete blossoming of their qualities and also for strengthening their character thoroughly. The sole purpose of this paper would be to present an annotated bibliography on the topic of social media and ill impact on the mind of the children.
