Yes parents should be involved more but teens dont want there parents as there friends. Im friends of both my kids on FB and have had to ask comments to be removed before. And they have been
Children/teens are learning a "disconnect" from reality because of social media. Many adults are too, however younger people are not equiped with real life experiances to deal with such vile reamarks that can be a part of a un-emotional use of verbage as is the internet.
As a parent myself I have always watched what my children do and I have limited it when I see they are allowing it to over take what I feel is a normal childhood occurence.
Children as I said are not ready many times to see the whole world at once, all its violence, sadness, evil personalities and lack of any emotion that is often seen online.
When I was growing up, my parents would make me play outside. Watching tv or having a soda was a special enjoyment. I learned to respect things. I knew what it was to be in my place as a child. I did not talk back to my parents and as I grew older I respected them.
Now children run wild having no respect for anyone, even thier self. They have little guidance. We have a breakdown of a moral society. When I use the word moral, do not take it as a religous term. I mean people taking responsibility for thier children and actions. Children shouldnt know certain things till they are old enough to deal with them. Now children get everything in thier face.
only parents can take that back and allow children to be just children. but I dont see that ever happening. Unfortunatly what I just said most people would call me crazy for.
If you really want it to stop, look at the root of the problem. And In my opinion the root of the problem is too much massive intake of false individual realities where children never get to find who they really are, they just spend all thier time comparing themself with everyone online. That is depressing, because most of it is a LIE.
