In Sherman Alexie’s poem “The Facebook Sonnet” Alexie brings up a controversy, over all social media because it absorbs society into the depths of dark unknowns and prevents physical face to face communication. Even though Facebook allows people to stay up to date with friends, whether they be new or deep-rooted, the platform tears its users away from substantial social interaction with others. People can connect to the world by the click of the mouse and know what is going on at any given time. Social media requires ones everlasting attention, and the addiction is almost comparable to that of a cigarette, one cannot give it up and is always thinking about when one can check it again. People become so caught up in trying to perceive what everyone else is doing, they forget that they have a reality to live and fail to maintain real relationships. “The Facebook Sonnet” belittles the social media platform by emphasizing how obsessed society is with making themselves look perfect for the screen. One is either gripping to their past or obsessing over the present.

In the article, “The Perils of ‘Sharenting’,” Adrienne Lafrance discusses that sharing children’s identities online will have a negative effect on their privacy, self-rule, and the child-parent relationship. As a result, researchers and pedestrians are designing a public-health campaign to raise awareness of this problem. In these days, Parents put their children at risk of digital theft when they post their children's photos, videos, and quotes on social media while falsely believing that the privacy settings they are using can provide a proper safety net. Furthermore, a professor which was mentioned by Laurance claims that while posting the children's pictures expresses the parent's thoughts, the action intervenes with the children's self-determination,

Notably, “We Post Nothing About Our Daughter Online” signifies the authors sentiments and concerns very well. Parents are frequently caught up in the many joys of parenthood and the desire to share these occasions with the world. In spite of the circumstance, parents are still oblivious to how exemplary actions become hindering to their child's future. For instance- bathtub pictures, running around the house in his or her diaper, or just playing a superhero in the front of the house, with the house address in plain view. Indeed, these types of pictures and videos appear quite innoxious, or the author is extremely paranoid in this article. By the same token, Facebook contains millions of profiles, and no one can verify the motives of individuals ("Why We Post Nothing—Nothing—About Our Kid Online”. Here are two examples of how photos can be missed used; prior to May 5th, 2015 there have been two occurrences where children were demoralized. The first was on May 5th, 2015. A Utah mother was mortified after discovering her Facebook photos of her child had been used on more than eleven porn sites("Utah Mom Finds Stolen Facebook Photos Of Her Kids Promoting Porn Sites."). The second offense was Subways' very own Jared Fogle. He accepted a plea deal for engaging in sex with a minor, and obtaining child pornography from online sources("Jared Fogle Sought out Teen Sex, Child

In this day and age it is not uncommon to see a family at dinner with their heads in their phones instead of submersing themselves in conversation with one another. Friends and family alike know more about each other by looking at ones Facebook wall rather than by holding a simple conversation. Ones life is no longer played out by communicating face to face or even through a landline, but rather by Facebook statuses and Instagram posts. It is no secret that social media has become

In the article “the perils of “sharenting”,” Adrienne Lafrance discusses that some parents’ actions have affected their child’s life in a positive or negative manner. Due to these actions the author discusses the negative and positive effects of their actions. The author commences by giving recommendations to some governmental institutes that could assert the public health to change the parent’s attitude. Also, she supplements that some parents share private information that could lead to the child being abused or that they are hijacked digitally. Furthermore, Lafrance clarifies that not all pictures should be posted to the social media accounts due to having some pictures being taken in a wrong method. Moreover, the author mentions that although

This public figure becomes the companies’ innovation to have people share their thoughts “like a diary, but no key” (74). The lesson Schinke wants to reach with his audience is that people need to cautious about posting their photos and thoughts online. Even if people are not comfortable sharing their thoughts online, it is not worth exposing themselves, leading them to trouble with the law or making people confused about why they posted online (74). In summary, Schinke creates a bold statement for young people to know the value of

In “How Do We Prevent Parents From Posting Embarrassing Pictures? Courts aren’t the answer.”, Priya Kumar (2016), questions the extreme steps taken by the children against their parents and recommends better approaches to prevent parents from posting personal information on their offspring on social media. Priya Kumar holds a bachelor’s degrees from the University of Maryland in journalism and government & politics, a master’s degree from the University of Michigan School of Information (UMSI)and currently she is a doctoral student at the university of Maryland, where she studies families, technology use, and privacy.

Kj Dell'Antonia’s “Don’t Post About Me on Social Media, Children Say” argues that parents should be conscious about what they post on social media. Researchers have found that children were far more concerned about their online lives than their parents. This is because “it’s increasingly clear that our children will grow into teenagers and adults who want to control their digital identities” (2). In some cases, the children were humiliated by what was posted on social media from their parents. But the parents’ intention is not to humiliate their child. Stacy Steinberg, a legal skills professor, said, “parents often intrude on a child’s digital identity, not because they are malicious, but because they haven’t considered the potential reach

In this movie things like cyberbullying, backlash, worldwide connectivity, invasion of privacy and common interest take place. The events that related to these terms were explicit photos were taken to be on the internet, users blocking others on Facebook, Cyberbullying in video games, tracking ones movements and constant supervision of phone and computer and affairs and infidelity in marriages. The unfortunate outcomes of some of these means of social media were suicide attempt and miscarriages and heart breaks. This movie is relatable in many ways, even though people may not be going through the same events there are similar and even more complex. In the article “We have no right to be forgotten online” Tessa Mayes explains that there is a new law being introduced to take off wild events and posts from their past posted on the internet. Although it sounds unrealistic to some many are open to the idea, which protects personal information and images from being used by others. In the article “What goes on the internet stays on the internet” Author Nichelle Hue argues that the youth are more vulnerable to destroying their image on social media by posting pictures as far back in elementary school and downloading songs and movies illegally. Once this is noted there this type of record stays with you. Both articles explain the disadvantages of abusing social media which can cost job opportunities and a negative impression

The first piece of evidence Lafrance states is, “In the United States , the vast majority of 2-year olds--more than 90 percent of them, according to a 2010 survey--already have an online presence. More than 80 percent of babies younger than that are already on social media, too.” Children, obviously too young to object to being posted, are being spread across social media, potentially putting them in harm's way, an unarguable statement. She uses examples of parents posting photos on the internet and how it has resulted in bad situations for the child and family.

The article “Why some 13-year-olds check social media 100 times a day” I chose was published by CNN News and written by Chuck Hadad. One of the main purpose of this article is to discuss How social media today affects our youth and to make parents aware of the impact it's having on their children.

Many researchers argue that social media provides a cloak by which people can hide behind. In other instances, the Internet has established a place for those who fear interacting in the real world. They can now safely communicate and build relationships. The topic of cloaking is interesting because prior to the internet, people had to venture out into the world and had to communicate live with people, the process developed social skills that are threatening to be lost as social networking continues to grow. At the forefront is the notion that social media as well as personal electronics is “killing” communication (Tardanico 2012). The author reflecting on an incident that occurred between a friend and her daughter and

Technology nowadays is more accessible than ever before because younger and younger children are being given this technology to use this is not the child’s fault though the parents of the kids are the ones giving them access to these devices, while this is helpful for the children’s development of their ICT skills for the future, which is now more than ever in the job market going into the future. It has detrimental effects on family relations and the majority of children would much rather talk to their friends online than to talk with their family. It is not only mobile phones and such that have a detrimental effect on families, some television shows parents in a bad light. Parents of these children try to overcome this divide not by trying to communicate with their children face to face, but by accessing these social media platforms for themselves (Around 50% of parents) and keeping track of what their kids are doing through that method, which would be an effective technique. That is if their children will accept their parents' friend requests or follows, this is especially a problem in the teenage years when the kids are trying to push their parents away. This is a prime example of how social networks and the technology that allows it creates a communication gap in the families of today’s world. This issue is also made worse as many parents have little to no skills in the use of technology, which is obviously a stumbling block when it comes to even setting up the accounts
