DC Inappropriate Use

Brenda Croghan
I can think of several examples of digital misuse. My daughter was the target of another student who made a separate account about my daughter just to post about her. I have also seen the student that is talking about suicide, I've heard of the girl that did inappropriate sexual things with boys and they videoed it and sent it to the football team. Parents responding with threats or joining in on the bullying. The list goes on.  In each incident people are ashamed, hurt, angered and at a general loss of what to do. We need to teach that people need to take a breather and not respond/react to post irrationally. We also as a society stop posting our whole personal life online. We need to speak to our partners, friends, co-workers and children at home face to face whenever possible instead of posting it.
