Why Social Media Behavior Matters

Social media has proven more than a trend, social media

matters. Your social behavior offline may never be seen by your
teacher or parents if you don't implement responsibility and respect in
your online social media behavior.

Many teenagers are aware that a Tweet or Facebook post can actually
cost them a college scholarship or admission, however do they
understand that it can be more than a simple post? It can be how you
interact and engage with others online that matter too.

Another cliché that has come full circle, 'you don't get a second
chance to make a first impression.Today your first impression is likely
to be what a search engine has to say about you.
So we can agree that social media behavior matters, now what can
you do to improve your social media behavior?

1. Keep private and personal matters offline. Use private

messages and never engage in heated arguments online. No
one ends up winning.
2. Be mindful of what you post on your site and other's
sites. The cliché, think before you post, never gets old.
3. Keep your tone in check. Never use all caps. Digitally
speaking, typing in all caps relates to yelling or screaming.
 4. De-clutter your friends. Especially if they are continuously
adding questionable content or comments to your sites.
5. Interact with empathy and respect. No matter where you
are online, (blogging, chat rooms, forums, etc) be sure your
keystrokes are engaging with respect towards others.
6. Sign-off. If you are having a bad day, don't be afraid to unplug
from all devices and social media for 24-hours before you post
something you may regret.
7. Don't Overshare. Privacy has become a priceless commodity
online today. Don't assume your texts, Tweets and posts can't
be forwarded, copied and pasted -- all before you get a
chance to 'delete' a digital mistake.

Treat others as you want to be treated is what most your parents and
your teachers have taught you. What you need to remember is this is
equally important online. Kindness is always a priority in all that you do
- offline and online.

A. What are the Symptoms of Internet Addiction?

Signs and symptoms of Internet Addiction Disorder may present

themselves in both physical and emotional manifestations. Some of
the emotional symptoms of Internet Addiction Disorder may include:

 Depression
 Dishonesty
 Feelings of guilt
 Anxiety
 Feelings of Euphoria when using the Computer
 Inability to Prioritize or Keep Schedules
 Isolation
 No Sense of Time
 Defensiveness
 Avoidance of Work
 Agitation
 Mood Swings
 Fear
 Loneliness
 Boredom with Routine Tasks
 Procrastination
Physical Symptoms of Internet Addiction Disorder may include:
 Backache
 Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
 Headaches
 Insomnia
 Poor Nutrition (failing to eat or eating in excessively to avoid
being away from the computer)
 Poor Personal Hygiene (e.g., not bathing to stay online)
 Neck Pain
 Dry Eyes and other Vision Problems
 Weight Gain or Loss

B. Netiquette
What is Netiquette? Simply stated, it's network etiquette -- that is,
the etiquette of cyberspace. And "etiquette" means "the forms
required by good breeding or prescribed by authority to be
required in social or official life." In other words, Netiquette is a set
of rules for behaving properly online. When you enter any new
culture -- and cyberspace has its own culture -- you're liable to
commit a few social blunders. You might offend people without
meaning to. Or you might misunderstand what others say and take
offense when it's not intended. To make matters worse, something
about cyberspace makes it easy to forget that you're interacting
with other real people -- not just ASCII characters on a screen, but
live human characters. So, partly as a result of forgetting that
people online are still real, and partly because they don't know the
conventions, well-meaning cybernauts, especially new ones, make
all kinds of mistakes.

When you're holding a conversation online -- whether it's an email

exchange or a response to a discussion group posting -- it's easy
to misinterpret your correspondent's meaning. And it's
frighteningly easy to forget that your correspondent is a person
with feelings more or less like your own. It's ironic, really.
Computer networks bring people together who'd otherwise never
meet.

Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct

everyone else. If you do decide to inform someone of a mistake, point
it out politely, and preferably by private email rather than in public.
Give people the benefit of the doubt; assume they just don't know any
better. And never be arrogant or self-righteous about it. Just as it's a
law of nature that spelling flames always contain spelling errors, notes
pointing out Netiquette violations are often examples of poor
Netiquette.
C. Cyber Bullying
Cyberbullying on social media is linked to depression in teenagers,
according to new research that analyzed multiple studies of the online
phenomenon.

Victimization of young people online has received an increasing level

of scrutiny, particularly after a series of high-profile suicides of
teenagers who were reportedly bullied on various social networks. In
2013, for example, a spate of suicides was linked to the social network
Ask.fm, where users can ask each other questions anonymously. The
deaths of teens who had been subject to abuse on the site prompted
Ask.fm (which was acquired by Ask.com in 2014) to launch new safety
efforts. Twitter, likewise, announced plans in April to filter out abusive
tweets and suspend bullying users.

Social media use is hugely common among teenagers, said Michele

Hamm, a researcher in pediatrics at the University of Alberta, but the
health effects of cyberbullying on social media sites is largely
unknown. Regular, face-to-face bullying during the teen years
may double the risk of depression in adulthood, and bullying's effects
can be as bad or worse than child abuse, studies show.
Bullies and mean girls have been around forever, but technology now
gives them a whole new platform for their actions. The old "sticks and
stones" saying is no longer true — both real-world and online name-
calling can have serious emotional consequences for our kids and
teens.

No longer limited to schoolyards or street corners, modern-day

bullying can happen at home as well as at school — essentially 24
hours a day. Picked-on kids can feel like they're getting blasted
nonstop and that there is no escape. As long as kids have access
to a phone, computer, or other device (including tablets), they are
at risk.

Severe, long-term, or frequent cyberbullying can leave both victims

and bullies at greater risk for anxiety, depression, and other stress-
 related disorders. In some rare but highly publicized cases, some
kids have turned to suicide. Experts say that kids who are bullied
— and the bullies themselves — are at a higher risk for suicidal
thoughts, attempts, and completed suicides.

The punishment for cyberbullies can include being suspended from

school or kicked off of sports teams. Certain types of cyberbullying
can be considered crimes.

Signs of Cyberbullying

Many kids and teens who are cyberbullied don't want to tell a
teacher or parent, often because they feel ashamed of the social
stigma or fear that their computer privileges will be taken away at
home.

Signs of cyberbullying vary, but may include:

 1. being emotionally upset during or after using the Internet or the

phone
 2. being very secretive or protective of one's digital life
 withdrawal from family members, friends, and activities
 avoiding school or group gatherings
 3. slipping grades and "acting out" in anger at home
 4. changes in mood, behavior, sleep, or appetite
 5.. wanting to stop using the computer or cellphone
 6. being nervous or jumpy when getting an instant message,
text, or email
 7. avoiding discussions about computer or cellphone activities
