You are here
According to a recent article from the NY Times, the obsession with politics that has many adult Americans fiercely following the news has filtered down to their children. Teachers say their middle- and high-school students are more engaged than ever in politics. Students say their social media news feeds, including Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat, make it easier for them to keep up with current events. Of course that also means you need to discuss with your children the need to vet and confirm what they read or see online.
