Cracking Teenagers Online Codes

Now and days everyone has a profile on a social network. Dr. Danah Boyd is a senior researcher at Microsoft. She explains why teenagers spend most of they're time on the internet. She says that we spend most of our time on the internet because of the fact that most of our parents don't feel safe with letting us outside. Where as though we could get on the internet and be on their as long and as late as we want, there's violence on the streets so we feel like it better to be in front of a computer screen. I some what agree with what she said, about how our parents won't let us outside because of the violence. She says don't really understand why parents would rather us be on the internet not knowing what we're doing and could posibily be putting our selves in danger by talking to people we don't know. But my mom knows about what i do on the internet,  she my follower on "Twitter", and my friend on "Facebook". I can understand that some people parents are not like mine and they don't pay as much attention. Not everyone does bad things on the internet, all parents just need  pay a little more attention and you wont have to worry.
