1. In today's digital age, Vietnamese young people are increasingly depending on the virtual world. However, this trend is considered as an unhealthy living habit since it presents several drawbacks and challenges that can have long-term effects on teens' emotional and physical well-being.

2. According to experts, excessive screentime is a significant concern associated with living a virtual life. Prolonged exposure to digital devices can lead to eye strain, headaches, sleep deprivation and other health issues. Worryingly, teens who assign hours on the Net every day tend to suffer from disappointing performance at school and poor posture. Another negative effect on youngsters is social isolation and disconnection from the real world. Many teens become highly reliant on online interactions and neglect their offline relationships, leading to the feelings of loneliness, anxiety and depression. Additionally, the online world can expose them to cyberbullying, harassment and harmful content, posing a threat to their safety.

3. To solve the problems, it is recommended that parents set a screentime limit for their children, encourage them to take part in outdoor activities and practise responsible online behaviour. Besides, parents, educators and policymakers need to play an active role in promoting digital literacy and popularising online safety rules for youngsters. These will help them have a well-balanced life between work and play.
