I don't disagree that todays kids are used to having the net available 24/7 etc...my concern is the fact that we seem to be pushing quite a bit at them as it is - from school to extracuricular activities. At what time do we allow them to be 'just kids' - specially when it comes to the Elementary school 'crowd'? Sabine Frank,

You and I, we were not born with a keyboard in our hand but teens are and they don't make a difference between communicating online and offline. With social media, they also have an online personality that is becoming sometime more important than their offline personality. Teens are becoming autonome younger thanks (or should I say Because of) internet. We are not able to protect our children from this, but they are born with internet. Not us. Frank Hi, Sabine,
