Is technology making your child rude? The Internet and social media platforms are great places to communicate and learn. However, there is a lack of etiquette on the Internet and social media because etiquette rules haven't been laid out for users. If you do not use technology responsibly, it can negatively affect your reputation and your relationships, both personally and professionally. Children and teens need to keep in mind that colleges and employers are seeking people with not just good technical and academic skills, but also with social graces, self-awareness, and a positive presence on the internet.
