Social Networking - The Solution - Continued

So like I ended my last post about making our weaknesses stronger, it is the same concept with how we should approach situations such as suicide and bullying. We need to recognize it faster and make others self-aware of this issue. You see, we try to ignore and forget about the little things that bother us and move on and we have spread that concept too far over time. An example would be if we are getting bullied, we are told as children to simply ignore these kinds of things, but are we told why? Why is it that ignoring something that can increase in magnitude depending on the person be simply ignored? These are questions that need to be talked about in classrooms.

As high schools become more and more lenient on the devices we are allowed to bring with us into the classroom, it allows students to be brought in more information faster than ordinary causing more possible problems. People tend to notice and point out problems quicker and faster nowadays, but are parents able to acknowledge the same things our kids are seeing in everyday school?

I know this also seems quite random but don’t worry, it all comes together just keep reading damnit! Schools have the most power over your child’s psychological life in my opinion. As a child, you have most of your social interactions with others in school such as school activities, classroom interactions, and sports. Now I am not saying we should have our parents checking up on us using Facebook all the time, but parents should definitely have a strong bond with their kids so that they do not feel alone, parents should become aware of what their kids are doing, who they are talking to, and what kind of activities they are participating in. I also believe everyone should have a psychologist. Personally, being able to vent to someone is always a good piece, but being able to vent to a professional about your problems and getting advice is even better, but some people are not that fortunate to have such help. It comes down to the parents to talking to their children and keeping their minds healthy. But overall, none of these solutions seem to be really needed. In fact, cyber bullying awareness is increasing just as fast as computer advances. I hope this information was helpful and interesting to read about. All I ask is that you keep the idea that social networking is a huge benefit to our society because it gives us a better look into someone else’s life, helps with security risks, and can help us get notified of others emotional problems, allowing us to take action upon all of these things is one less thing we have to worry about in society.
