The digital birds and bees
By the time students are in high school, their parents are probably not
monitoring their internet use or checking through their cellphones. Older
teens are making the transition to adulthood and adult responsibility for
their actions, but you can't assume they're street smart when it comes to
some of the common issues facing them on the web. The internet is a
phenomenal tool that permeates every aspect of their lives as digital
natives, and they need to learn how to draw boundaries around safe and
responsible behavior.
