Your Online Image #1
You've discussed in your Keynote presentations about how important it is for you to be very careful when you're online.
- be careful with your personal information
- be careful about what you say about others
- be careful about language, images, etc
- be careful about secrets, embarrassing or other personal info about others
Things that you post online can also be damaging to your reputation - now, or in the future.
We're going to handle the blog differently in the next couple of weeks. You will be presented with different scenarios, that involve online social networking. Respond to the question(s) asked. Give your answer some thought.
First Scenario:
You are finally old enough to join a social networking app/site and set up your own profile. You spend a lot of time adding pictures and connecting with things that you "like", and you have links to many friends. Your mom makes her own profile and asks you to be her “friend" (or let her "follow" you, etc). What do you think about that? Explain your thinking.
I think it would be fine. If you are not doing anything bad why not let them friend you. If you said no anyways they would probably get suspicious of what you are doing.
ReplyDeleteI agree it shouldn't be a problem if you don't post anything bad and if you say no then they would become suspicious of what you are posting.
DeleteI agree, if you say no your parents are going to try harder to see what you are posting. I think parents following your socials shouldn't be a problem.
DeleteI also agree it's not a problem if your parents I post if its nothing bad
Deletei disagree there is very little resining why you have to friend your parent. think about a scenario where you and your parents don't have a good relationship you post something to your friend and then your parents see it and it goes down hill from there.
DeleteI agree not friending your parents back is not a good idea
DeleteI agree also, as long as they keep their status as a friend because sometimes they snoop and it can be annoying.
DeleteI agree, you shouldn't really make a big deal about your parents following your social media account if you aren't doing anything that you wouldn't want them to see
Deletei agree that you should let your parents friend you because you shouldn't be posting anything that they don't know about
Deletei would accept it, matter of fact i have both my parents and some family on some social media. my family knows who i am what what i do and doesnt tell me to post or not post certain things because they know im smart enough to not post personal or innapropriate things on my social media.
ReplyDeleteI agree because I wouldn't mind friending my mom or other family members because I want them to know who am. I even want show them things that I like to do on my own time.
DeleteI agree with you because I would be friend with my mom on social media .
Deletei think it good that your parents follow you on your main account but more then likely most people have a second account wear they can post some stuff they might not want to show to your parents.
ReplyDeleteI agree, if you want a more personal account you should make a second account with only people you trust following it.
DeleteYes I also agree because a lot of people do have a second account that they wouldn't want their parents to see but the main account should be fine.
Deletetotally agree. even if we dont post anything bad its still nice to have that privacy
DeleteIt's a good idea to have a separate account that your parents cannot see and you can post on there.
DeleteI agree a separate account is a good idea
DeleteNo I don't agree with you because my mom says its not ok to post bad stuff online.
DeleteI agree, having an account to post not inappropriate stuff, but personal stuff that you don't feel comfortable sharing with your parents, but sharing them with your close friends that you really trust is great.
Deletepersonally i hate this your mother is trying either 1 to intrude on your person stuff and online space or 2 rally just wants to be your friend but most of the time is the first option.
ReplyDeleteI agree sometimes they can intrude a little to much and all you gotta do is tell them to stop.
DeleteI disagree because whatever I post the whole world can see it so whats the problem if my parents see it.
DeleteI don't agree with you because sometime I think she want to see what you are doing.
DeleteI agree, when parents intrude they can be a little too nosey.
DeleteI disagree because with her being friends with you online she isn't trying to invade on your privacy, If anything she just wants to make sure you aren't being dumb and posting things you shouldn't
DeleteI disagree because being friends with your parents online should not be a problem if you don't post anything bad. If you are i'd advise making a second account or tell your parents a good valid reason why they shouldn't be your friend in the first place
DeleteI think your parents should be aloud to follow you on social media because anything you post on social media shouldn't be something you wouldn't show your parents. If you wanted a more personal account you can make a second secret account where you only have people you are very close with follow you.
ReplyDeleteI agree, having you parents following you will make you think about what you are posting. Many times people post things they regret later on, and knowing your parents will see it will make people think twice.
DeleteYes I agree with you Because parents should be aloud to allow kids to post pictures on social media it would be smart to post nice things online.
DeleteI agree too
Deletei agree having a parent follow means that they want to protect you from the bad part of social media
DeleteI agree if you are posting stuff you wouldn't want them to see then you probably shouldn't post it at all.
Deletei agree, having parents or your family makes you think twice about certain things you post.
DeleteI agree, your parents following you should be okay, because most people use social media to share all of their fun experiences and adventures with others. Which doesn't need to be hidden from your parents
DeleteI think its ok for your parents to follow your social media. I think the parents aren't trying to stalk you or do anything of that sort they just want to make sure that no weird people are posting about you or that you are on something you shouldn't be.
ReplyDeleteI agree because I know my mom is not a stalker she just wants to know that you're not doing something bad on social media.
Deleteyes i agree with eli 100%
Deletei agree with Eli that your parents aren't stalking you they are just seeing if you are doing anything bad behind their back
DeleteI think it's a good idea that your parents follow you on whatever because then you have another reason to not post stuff you shouldn't.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great point. Many people post things they regret later on, and having you parents follow you might have you think twice before doing so.
Deletei understand your point your parents could act like a deterrent from posting private stuff or something private.
DeleteI think it would be fine if your not posting anything bad and if you were posting bad stuff you shouldn't be on social media because you could get in trouble
ReplyDeletei agree not posting anything bad means that there is no shot of you getting yelled at
DeleteExactly, I agree. Don't post anything bad on social media once it's there and who saw the post you can't erase it... It is there forever whether you delete it or not. Don't make those mistakes where you will regret.
DeleteIt's find that my mom is my friend because she want's to make sure I'm not doing something bad on social media.
ReplyDeleteI think it would be fine. I want my mom to be my friend .
ReplyDeleteI think it would be ok for my mom to be my friend.,Because
ReplyDeleteit dosen't mean to post bad things on social media or online.
I think your parent following you or adding you on social media is perfectly fine. THey most likely arent gonna use it to see your every move.
ReplyDeletei agree having a parent follow it fine as long as they aren't getting into your buisness
DeleteI agree if you don't post bad things you shouldn't have to worry about anything
DeleteI agree, as long as they don't invade your privacy to the point where you can't do a single thing without them knowing.
DeleteI think it would be fine as long as you don't post things that you know that she wouldn't appreciate. And just make use that you be careful of what you watch or post.
ReplyDeleteI think it's normal to have parents on social media as long as you watch who you follow and what content you view.
ReplyDeleteI personally wouldn't have a problem if my parents asked me if they could follow me on social media, unless they were using it against me to invade my privacy. Because even though they may be the adult and your parent, everyone deserves their privacy, and your parents should hopefully respect that. But if you want to, you can easily make a second little account that your parents don't know about so that you could post more personal stuff so that only your close friends that you trust could see what you post.
ReplyDeleteI agree with this. Everybody deserves their own privacy on a certain level but following your account should not be a problem unless they're using it against you.
DeleteI think letting your parents follow your instagram, facebook, or other online websites should not be a problem. They most likely aren't there to stalk you. They're probably just following to follow you; However they could have other reasons everybody's parents are different. If its a problem I suggest talking to them about why you would/wouldn't want them following you. If it's that personal just make a 2nd account for only your close friends can follow.
ReplyDeleteI agree, most parents don't follow your social media to use it against you.
Deletei think having your parents fallow your accounts is perfectly fine because if you are posting stuff without them knowing when they find out from someone they will be even more mad that you tried hiding it
