Mistakes in Social Media at #DadChat

Posted on by

Head in Hands - Oops

Who hasn’t made a mistake with Social Media? And, whose kid hasn’t hit send a bit too quickly or posted a photo they later regret? This Thursday, May 23 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET, we’re going to chat about these sort of common mistakes we all make and perhaps focus a bit on guiding our kids to at least pause before hitting that dangerous SEND button! We are fortunate to have Social Media whiz John Paul Aguiar as this week’s co-host.

How big is the generation gap, really?  What were the slang words of your generation? Mine included groovy and bitchin’ among many others. Every generation has its own slang, dress, general look, and of course, its own music. Every generation looks back at theirs as the best and I actually think this is a darn good thing. For young boys and girls, dressing differently than their parents, listening to different music, and generally speaking their own language is the first step on the road to independence.

I think this is one of those semi-taboo topics that aren’t aired much, which means, of course, I’m going to wade right into it.
