You never know who might read your Tweet.

Check out the video at left to see teachers reading the Tweets their students posted about them. Would you be comfortable to find your Tweets featured in a video like this?
When you post information on social media, it is easily shared and repeated. |
Or, who might see that photo.
The infographic at right from Common Sense Media can help you determine whether you should share photos--of yourself or a friend.
Would you, or your friend, be comfortable with your parents, grandparents, or younger siblings seeing the photo? Will you, or your friend, feel good about seeing the photo online a few years from now? Would you be happy to have a college admissions officer, military recruiter, or job recruiter finding the photo online? When you post information online or send it using a social media app, that information doesn't ever really disappear. |
