The principal emailed a letter to parents telling about the incident to police. This follows a series of races incidents at school. Some students its always good to have an open line of communication between schools and parents but who should be responsible for monitoring students on social media . Were joined by common sense education. Thank you for joining us today. I would like to hear your perspective as a father of two young girls. Do you monitor their social media behavior . As a parent it depends on where are your kids. If they are just starting off in social media, role model and show them what are appropriate ways to share information and what information is safe to share. Also calling out when you see things happening inappropriately but not just saying, oh thats wrong but bring in your ideals and values and be able to define why its wrong and not okay to give them a sense of empathy so they know it could affect more than one person. We should be thinking about the way we affect each other online as well as in person. I think a lot of kids these days dont understand how permanent their posts are. Parents have to become more social media savvy and get involved in their childs activity whether that be sharing passwords or access to their pages correct. It is about making sure your child is ready for that kind of independence. It is appropriate for kids to thrive and be independent but they need guidance on how to do it first and make sure they are empowered to think critically about how to use these tools and be open for when they run into something uncomfortable that they can come to you when those issues arise. What kind of roles do you think the school should play quick when i think about social media, the conversation should be ubiquitous like the tool. School should be providing some education. They are providing access to these tools and encouraging kids to collaborate with each other so they should set the foundation for good communication using these tools with social media for the classroom and personal use. When we saw what happened with those photos discovered by school administrators, do you think they are equally as responsible as parents are quick i think it depends on when they found out about the information. They went onto the codes and conduct and address the issues. Recognizing that when something does happen that may not have happened on School Grounds but on school issued devices, they have to take responsibility and address the issues and support everyone. Is not going to be easy but the conversation needs to be half a and use this as an opportunity to look at what are ways to appropriately address these issues . What should we be sharing and not sharing . Understand the sense of empathy that that was someone else on the other end and that will affect them in a certain way. Not to sensitize from the screen. Hopefully we will see schools incorporate social media into their curriculum. Thank you so much for joining us today. Thanks for having me pick us economy takes a sharp downturn. We will sit down with an expert after the break to explore what led to the nosedive and what the future likes looks like going forward. Stay with us. We are chatting away here but slow growth for the us economy, the economy grew less than 1 in the First Quarter. The worst showing of more than three years. A drop off in auto sales and a delay in tax refund checks help slow spending. Consumer confidence to remain strong. For more and that im joined by george pacetti from Morgan Stanley financial. We were chatting during the break. You look at wall street and your 401 k since january day scott they have gone up exponentially but we have a sluggish economy the Gross Domestic Product which is a summary of all goods and services and exports not imports, a terrible number. 7 for the First Quarter which is terrible growth. If we continue doing that we would be upset about it. We think its an anomaly we had a couple of things happen. Military spending was way down. We just got off of holiday sales for christmas and that sort of thing. We just saw less spending going on. We think we will double down. At Morgan Stanley our tracker data shows that in the Second Quarter we should be up about 4. 1 . So take the. 7 we are unhappy with and the 4. 1 that were very happy with and were on a 2. 2 run rate which is a little higher than what the feds are expecting. If we end up at a 2. 1 overall gdp for the whole year it would be okay. We needed 3 to be good. The president said that during his campaign for . It would be impossible to take us from 2 to 4 . The economy has to be further stimulated and we wont see the results of that if it actually is passed until 2018. It takes a year. Reporter we have to be patient. Our economy is doing okay.
