Renee just moved to a new town from another state. She is worried because she is starting at a new school and will have to make all new friends. Fortunately, all of her old friends are on social media. They have promised to keep in touch and post often. What disadvantage might this plan bring?

A.
Renee may spend so much time with old friends she misses opportunities to make new ones.

B.
Her friends say that they will be on social media, but they probably will have other things to do.

C.
Social media does not generally facilitate staying connected over distances, so this will not work.

D.
Young people do not tend to spend a lot of time on social media, so there will not be as much contact as Renee would like.
