Electronic communication has exploded in the last decade. It seems like everyone has a need always to be connected with everyone else whether they are sending email, talking on the cell phone, or connecting via Facebook.

Summarize the incident. Explicitly list the etiquette rules that were violated, and then summarize your analysis of what would have happened if the rules had been followed.

Explanation / Answer

Social Media Etiquette rules

Netiquette is a set of unofficial rules for good behavior and politeness followed by users of online and digital technologies such as the Internet, email, and chatrooms.

Netiquette is derived from the word "etiquette," which refers to the general rules or conventions of correct and polite behaviour in social settings and situations. It is thus the practice of exercising polite and considerate behaviour in online contexts, such as Internet discussion boards and personal email.

Important to establish rules that will help your teen make healthy choices.

Create a Behavior Contract

Once you've established clear cellphone rules, create a behavior contract. Include the rules and the consequences your teen will experience for breaking any of the rules.

You also might include what will happen if your teen loses her phone, breaks it, or incurs data overage charges.

Then, have your teen review and sign the contract. That way, you'll know she is clear about your expectations and any restrictions you might impose if she violates the rules.
