Do social media affect the quality of teens' lives? In this book, the author, a youth culture and technology expert examines the conventional wisdom regarding teens' use of social media. She explores tropes about identity, privacy, safety, danger, and bullying. Ultimately, she argues that society fails young people when paternalism and protectionism hinder teenagers' ability to become informed, thoughtful, and engaged citizens through their online interactions. Yet despite an environment of rampant fear-mongering, she finds that teens often find ways to engage and to develop a sense of identity. Offering insights gleaned from more than a decade of original fieldwork interviewing teenagers across the United States, she concludes reassuringly that the kids are all right. At the same time, she acknowledges that coming to terms with life in a networked era is not easy or obvious. In a technologically mediated world, life is bound to be complicated." -- Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Internet and teenagers. 650 0 $a Online social networks. 650 0 $a Teenagers $x Social life and customs $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Information technology $x Social aspects. 650 7 $a COMPUTERS / Web / Social Networking. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS / Life Stages / Teenagers. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 4 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20180719042846.0 952 $l NSPC983 $d 20180711040026.0 952 $l DDPC173 $d 20180711023729.0 952 $l DUPB413 $d 20180706021419.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC316FF0BF4711E5B286A9D6DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
