Writing: Unit 4 is Internet addiction really a problem?
I agree with Mygirl_Ruby and Markyoo2 because I think the same that is when you are bored and it isn't an addiction.
My experience with internet is that I spend 3 hours in the internet playing gamesand seeing videos on Youtube.
My advide for the people with problems is that you shouldnt stay more than 2 hours in the internet because it is an addiction and the next day you are going to stay more than 2 hours.
