Cheating Goes Hi-Tech
Your Comments:It is my view that cell phone should be used in schools for emergencies ONLY, or to communicate to the family if needed to. Otherwise, the devices should be in safe locked Locker. Students that use such devices to cheat in exams by texting the answers to others or else, should be suspended and the device held up until parents come to the school to discuss the matter a proper solution. All school systems have regulations and rules that apply and should be followed and observed as directed and stated.

Is It OK for Kids to Do Homework on Facebook?
Your Comments:Absolutely NOT... If you want your children to be expose to sexual predators and GOD knows what else you'll let them use these social networking tools which are NOT optimal for any underage person. I have not yet heard of any school needing their students or educators to do homework or use a social network as a teaching tool. Moreover, such networks are prohibited in the LAN/Networks-schools and education districts. Parents at home MUST monitor the internet use when their children are doing homework or school research to ensure safety and mental health. Also there are tools such K9Solutions, Cyber Nanny, Cyber Patrol to help parents police the internet use at home, also you can create a HOST file to deny access to this sites. In addition with Windows Vista, parents can create accounts for their children and setup the parental controls and monitor the PC/Internet security this way.. PARENTS remember that the PC/Laptop MUST be in an open area of the house such living roon, TV room or kitchen where you can monitor what your children are doing NEVER in their bedrooms.

Should You Read Your Kids’ Texts?
Your Comments:In my opinion if you are not doing anything wrong or to be ashamed of, there is not an issue if your parents read your texts. Today technology advances at the speed of light and so kids in schools today; children expose themselves to many things while online or texting. REMEMBER: if you do NOTHING wrong; there is ANYTHING to worry about ever! There has been many cases where children and teenagers put themselves in dangerous positions; this by sharing information with people that they do not really know or trust. Some kids and teenagers feel like they own the world and know more than their parents but the reality is the opposite; remember they are not experience or mature enough as their parents. Because of this misconception children opt-to-do the wrong things for the wrong reasons. In occasions putting their lives in a very bad position and danger. Parents should and must read the text messages or other communications if they feel their kids are in danger or doing something wrong, this to protect their children well being and life if deem necessary. Now if the parents pay for the phone lines and provide for their children they have the right and it is their obligation as parents and adults to carefully and closely supervise the activities of their children. I feel that "the Privacy of any child/teenager/under age person" lies in the responsibility of their parents; therefore, they have the right and moral obligation to manage, supervise, conduct, raise and guide their children in the best way possible. The privacy issue with teenagers and children begins and ends, when they become mature adults and pay for their own room, board, studies, and food and general living. At this point parents need to let them live their lives and advise them when necessary or when asked about; otherwise their children have the right to make their own decisions and mistakes as well, in that manner they will mature and become better and productive adults.
