\"\"It used to take a day or two for gossip to spread. Now thanks to social media, it’s instantaneous!

My friend Ari Katz recently shared this article with me. As the director of Camp Mesorah, he had summer camp in mind. Clearly, his message applies to schools as well. Social media can be dangerous for campers, students, their parents, and institutions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, hundreds if not thousands, of parents feel free to comment about perceived insults, challenging assignments, gross fish sticks, or annoying new policies. In the past, an upset parent might have commented to a friend, \u201cMy child had too much homework tonight \u2013 it was just busy work!\u201d Or\u2026 \u201cI thought the school trip was disorganized.\u201d Perhaps the parent would have put a note in their child\u2019s knapsack or called an administrator.<\/span><\/p>\n

Channeling negative social media is a challenge. First, you need to point out the possibility of a culture that promotes negativity, snarkiness, and a lack of ownership. Mot important, you must create an alternative, open communication environment so that parents know their feelings and needs will be heard and addressed.<\/span><\/p>\n

I remember the day I introduced my grandmother to the Internet. She asked, \u201cIs this a good thing or a bad thing?\u201d I replied, \u201cboth.\u201d It\u2019s up to us to ensure that it is a good thing.<\/span><\/p>\n
