Safe Practices for Life Online

1. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
2. There are many consequences that students in high school and college face for what they post on the internet. Some parents monitor their child's Facebook page, and in turn, they report activity that some of their child's friends put on Facebook to the local schools and authorities. Many reasons are for bullying and threatening comments about other students, but where is the line drawn? How is it fair that a student in 1973 can verbally comment that they want to kill someone (as a joke) as a teenager, have no proof that they said it so they get away with saying it, and are able to finish highschool and college like it never happened, but in Tennessee this year a student is expelled for saying "I'ma kill em all. I'ma bust this (expletive) up from the inside like nobody's ever done before." I understand that there needs to be some form of punishment, but this kid said he was joking and now his whole career is ruined because of something that he typed on a social media website. He was a basketball star, but is going to go no where in life because he made a stupid mistake as a teenager. The consequences are too strict, and it is our job as professionals to make sure that these students know what is right and wrong. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2010-01-28-student-facebook-expelled_N.htm
