So true! I didn't think to write about the importance of posting pictures on social media on my blog. This is especially true with our teenagers. I'm afraid that many of them will one day regret some of the pictures they post!
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at what some people put on social websites. I love the saying, "Face your problems; don't Facebook your problems." You're so right; anyone can read your posts, and you don't want to air your dirty laundry to the whole world.
ReplyDeleteI am still surprised what I see written and pictures posted ...STILL....that young people still do not THINK! It's out there forever, anyone can find it. This can damage them and they are not thinking about it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your posting on being a good digital citizen. Everything is well put together. Social sites are public or private, depending on how the individual set up their account. One never knows who reading and observing their blogs or profiles. It is important to follow and use the rules of netiquette in utilizing digital technology when responding to others. Awesome.
