Why should Facebook be more Vigilant when it comes to Underage users?

Do you have a Facebook account? If you do and you’re under 13 then you aren’t really following the law.
Facebook is a social media site that used to be one of the biggest social media sites in the world.
But not everything about social media is true.

There are people on the world wide web who aren’t really the most responsible, and because they can’t
target adults who are smarter than children, they target children. Children don’t know what to do so they
do what there instincts tell them, their instincts aren’t always right. Children usually end up doing what
the person tells then to do, and once it’s done it can’t be undone. That is what children don’t understand. 

For Facebook users under the age of 13, Facebook and social media isn’t the safest place,
because there are a lot of bad influential content that is not  suitable for younger users.
If an account with a under-aged user is found Facebook must be provided with information that shows
their over 13. It would be more suitable if under-aged kids could be banned because they haven’t really
experienced the world of social activities.

Another reason that not many people take into consideration when they sign someone up is that the
person could make a secret account and then be cyberbullies. They end up hurting other people and
then they get caught. The parents end up finding out and the parents get the blame because they are
responsible because they gave their kid and account.

So here are three reasons Facebook should be more vigilant when it comes to underage users.
Inexperience in social activities, bad people on the internet, and potential cyberbullying. Facebook has
too many underage users and should be more persistent and vigilant when it comes to the law.

How to be a good Leader

Walt: Follow the structure of an explanation.
How to be a good leader is a particularly hard question to answer. It’s a very opinionated question, and there many different leaders in different eyes of different people. So in this piece of writing I will give examples of different types of leaders.

Responsibility. This is a trait that most people associate with leadership. Responsibility is the characteristic that in most people is taking the blame or baring the weight of a certain situation. Often leaders do this and try to work it out with a little bit of help from the people closest to them. A phrase commonly associated with responsibility is “take responsibility for your actions”. Well some people think that leaders do that a lot.

Respect. Another trait associated with leadership is Respect. Respect is a feeling of deep admiration and support. It’s also a way to say “I recognise you as a person and I understand that you are the same as me but also not, so I will treat you properly.” Good leaders know how to show this trait and people respect them for it.

Kindness. Ruling with an iron fist is not really the best thing to do. It shows fear and fear does not earn respect. Kind leaders are often respected by most people who wish to also be respected. When people are scared of a leader they’re more likely to turn their back on the person ruling with an iron fist.

So there you have it a bit of a summary on How to be a good leader. Responsibility, Respect and Kindness. These traits are the key things for a good leader. Hopefully for those who wish to become a leader you will take these traits as suggestions and keep them in mind.

Task Description: For this task I made a google doc and filed it. I wrote down things that make a good leader.  I posted it onto my blog, making sure I posted it to a high standard with a Walt, a Task Description, and Labels.
