Since this book’s publication so many new social media platforms are available . I would loved to see Dannah Boyd’s take on snapchat, keek, tinder, and vine to name a few.

You raised some very compelling questions. It just makes me realize that much more that I’m not ready for children. I want to protect them but at what cost to our relationship? Apps like this are not a necessity in my opinion but some form of monitoring definitely is essential in children’s protection.

You noticed the commentary on Facebook and the other platforms discussed in boyd’s book to be a little dated, so you took the initiative to research parent’s reactions to the popular social media sites used among teens today. The fact that the information published in a book that was published just last year can become a bit outdated this quickly really shows how fast online cultures can change. This poses problems when studying online communities and their trends–they are literally here one day and gone the next. As digital humanists, we have to keep this fact in mind and figure out research and publication methods that best fit this characteristic. Perhaps traditional publishing methods are not the best way to communicate the quickly-evolving research and observations of this field. Platforms that can be constantly added to and updated, such as online blogs, may be much more well-suited.

I agree that it is completely an invasion of privacy. Even before this technology existed there has always needed to be a certain level of trust between parents and children. Invasions of privacy like this completely disregard the trust parents and children should build for a healthy relationship.

I think it is crazy how far we have come with privacy for technology through technological privacy itself! I do think that parents should monitor their child’s life on the internet to a particular point, but I also believe that the parents should make it known to their child that they are inherently watching their online activity. It makes us question how far would we go with privacy services to protect the one’s we love? It also makes us question the dangers that are lingering out there, or if we are just getting held up about the privacy issues. This can be inherently existent if a parent were to see an ad to keep their child safe, it catches their eye and makes them pay attention because of the 2 key words: child and safe. I think this was a great app to bring to the attention especially when asking the question, Should the child know I’m watching them? or is ignorance bliss?

I agree your parents are doing the right thing by teaching the right online behaviors and not stalking. I can’t say what I would do as a parent now as I don’t have kids but this app seems excessive. I would want to know where my kids are but seeing every text, email, Instagram, and snapchat would be really invasive. I don’t want to be my future children’s best friend but I do want to have a bond built on trust , communication and understanding and this app would probably kill that. I hope those parents realize it before it’s too late.

I knew there were probably apps like this but actually seeing it is crazy! I totally agree and parents should be parents, not friends. But sometimes it goes too far. I don’t know if I agree with the app or not. If the parent is doing it to be cautious and isn’t obsessively checking their child’s phone, then I think it is acceptable. But if a parent is constantly on their child’s back…I think that can affect the parent-child relationship. My sister is on twitter and instagram constantly but she knows the precautions she has to take in order to be safe on the internet and that has to be emphasized instead of this whole stalking thing.
