In my household this school year, both of my kids are entering pivotal times in their young lives. My son is in grade 12 and will be expected to make some big decisions about what he will be doing with his life post-graduation. My daughter, however, is in grade 9 and is at the very beginning of her high school journey. She is making the transition from a small fish bowl into a larger aquarium.

1. making friends online is the new trend 2. Friendship is always evolving 3. Understand more cultures 4. Online interactions are different than in person interactions This is to inform parents of kids who have social media. It tells us that 57% of teens have made a new friend online. What needs to be watched is your children to make sure they do not go alone if they ever meet this person due to not everyone is who they say they are on social media. Only 25% of teens spend time with friends they made offline. We cannot just allow children to make friends online because we still need to know how to interact in person not just on a computer screen. |
