In Southern California, a school district, Glendale Unified School District, is spending over $40,000 on monitoring the student's social media usage on the internet. Students were being reported for posting suicidal thoughts, bullying, and etc. Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and more will be monitored at the school. I think that it isn't fair for the school to have to take action. They aren't the people who are responsible for the children's behavior on the internet. Parents and guardians are the ones who should teach their children right from wrong on the internet. A lot of these kids getting into this trouble range from the ages of 12 to 15. Do you think students should be monitored, even when the school isn't responsible for their behavior? Do the students even have enough self control?
