Social Media Update for Parents
It's hard for a parent to keep up with all of the latest apps and websites that attract our children today. This article posted online provides a quick update on some of the latest social media trends along with information about the concerns related to each of them. It's well worth the couple of minutes it will take you to read it, and will hopefully lead to a good discussion between you and your child on the do's and don'ts of the online world. - Mr. Burroughs
