| 1 || The Theory of Social Validation || [http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/communication-central/200909/the-theory-social-validation Click Here] || Gerald || This article from Baraki Akil II is basically what we are trying to prove. According to him and other’s statements it is not only being done through social networking but in our everyday life. An example from this article refers to Michael Jordan as how he wanted to demonstrate his skills to other great players. This need for acknowledgement fueled him to be the best through his college and NBA years.|| Deductive

| 4 || Teens Are Wired …And, Yes, It’s OK || [http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/06/09/gentech/main1698246.shtml Click Here] || Gerald || This article basically shows how teenagers are very quick at adapting to new technology without worrying about the consequences. It also states that teens have a biological need to separate from their parents and the online world is a good way to do it. Teenagers do not really think about privacy and tends to post anything online. They post events, pictures and feeling for everyone to see, while back in the days a secret diary was kept. Teens do not realize that once they hit “send” they are broadcasting their message to thousands of people. A study from Pew Study mentioned that 50% of teens have replied back to strangers. Similarly technology allows teen to get validation from any weird or antisocial attitude or belief they might have. Furthermore parents wants to help their kids but they do not know how to do it, and if they do they are not comfortable spying on their kids. For some online bullying is the same as bullying when no computers existed. || Deductive
