Social Media
In the big picture, social media is relatively new, and you are one of the first generations to really grow up with it. Social media creates great opportunities to connect with others and share just about anything, but it also comes with great pressure and responsibilities.
You may have been lectured countless times about the appropriate use of social media, and while you may be tired of hearing it, you will likely continue to hear about it from your parents and other adults since it is such a big deal.

General Guidelines to Know
Here are some resources on some of the important general guidelines regarding social media use. These include tips, information regarding online safety, and legal information you should know:
Your Reputation
You control your actions, which includes what you post. Before you share something, remember to THINK:
T - Is it true?
H - Is it helpful?
I - Is it inspiring?
N - Is it necessary?
K - Is it kind?
When used the right way, social media is a great tool to connect you with others. Do not use it to bring someone else down. You never know what someone else is going through and how your messages or posts can affect them.
