Some adults and teachers may think young people want to spend all of their time using social media. 

But a recent survey shows that may not be true. 

It found that students sometimes want to turn off their electronic devices to get away from the pressure to take part in social media.

For the study, researchers led a series of discussions at classes in the United States. 

They asked young people what they thought about social media.

The survey was a project of Common Sense Media, a non-profit group based in California, and a learning games platform calledKahoot!.

Eight out of ten students said that "some people think too much about their social media posts and are always trying to be perfect." About a third said it was acceptable "to post a version of yourself on social media that's not 100 percent real."

The students also talked about the issue of publishing unkind or hateful comments online. More than half of those questioned said that social media are "tearing us apart more than they are bringing people together."
