3 . I think that it is necessary to set limits , not all palaces are appropriate for a selfies such a museum , a hospital or a place were there are small children . First because of the risk of taking photos in an inappropriate or dangerous place , for damaging objects or for damaging the sensibility or image of other people. In addition to the finde te of the other people to appear in your photo .

Good job practicing your writing through this page.

For question # 2, try to write the response in full sentence. For example:

pros for a selfie : having a memory for all life,Sharing it with other people . Cons: waste o f time , there are people obsessed with getting the perfect photo who take risks to get it . ; people who only life from the image , etc

Some pros of selfies are having them to remember a lot of memories for all life and being able to share them with other people. On the other hand, some of the cons are that taking so much of them is a waste of time, some people become obsessed with getting the perfect photo and take risks just to be able to get them. Some people only live for these images.
