Internet safety is a big deal. Many people think that others can’t get their information if they don’t tell them. BUT that’s not true. Many people over the internet know how to get your information. They find ways to get your internet code which tells them your name, number, address, and anything else they might want to know about you. It is safer to NOT tell anyone you met over the internet your information can be safer, but not ENTIRELY. They can still find out everything about you, by just one little detail from your personal information.
Teens are always on the run. Cell phones are needed to contact family, parents, the police, and others medical or emergency hotlines if they are in trouble. If they are needing a ride or have to check in with parents at work in also reasons to have a cell phone. Including when most teens are home by themselves a lot of the time. If something were to happen and they needed to call their parents or the police or something, and they don’t have a cell phone, something bad might happen. Teens carrying cell phones around also might make their parents feel more secure knowing they can get a hold of them, no matter where they are.
But some teens are unresponsible with their cell phones. Most cell hpones are exspensive and the families can’t afford to replace them. If teens have pictures phone some things can happen, including if they have texting. More 50% of teens that have cell phones will ask for bad things and/or bad pictures. Most want nude pictures of their boyfriend or girlfriend, or people they like. Doing this is asking for Child Pornography with it HIGHLY illegal and you can go to jail for it. If the child is under 16, their parents could be blamed for it and have to take the punishment. Texting can have a bad influence, including with cussing, and flamming. Teens can say highly inappropiat things in text messages. Teens could also give their phone numbers out to people they know from over the internet. People can track them down through the numbers. This could cause teens to be kidnapped and numerous things could happen to them, including death. This happens a lot and it is never good.
