Summary:The development of information technology has brought about many changes in human life, especially in terms of communication. The emergence of social media that provides a lot of convenience in communicating, sharing various activities and of course being a place to share selfies, unknowingly fosters narcissism, which is no exception for teenagers.

Not to mention that the narcissistic photo implies a person's arrogance, because it is presented as perfectly as possible so that other people are interested and become viral, regardless of its consequences for moral values.
