How Social Media Is Changing The Childhood Experience
We see the shaming
You’ve seen the posts: kids and teens blasting a post out to the world about their parents’ inhumane treatment of them. The kid messed up, got disciplined, posted about the disciplinary action online, and then the whole Facebook community shamed the parent for being too harsh. Do we perhaps now live in a world where kids feel more empowered to act out, knowing that, if their parents choose to discipline them, those same kids can shame their parents online?
