Week 6

Hello Class!!!

Welcome to Week Six (aka. Midterms are starting week!)

So... news. I finally got my Screen Shot!!! It was super easy once I figured it out, it just took me FOREVER to figure out- go figure!



So, Continuing with our homework assignments, this week we learned about internet safety. I loved learning about this topic! I think that everyone should have to take a course in internet safety.

I went home this weekend for Conference, and so I had a nice discussion about internet safety with my parents and younger brother who is turning 16. He is the only one at home and so, I feel like my parents have laxed up a lot when it comes to internet/ technology usage since I was his age.

Actually, they have. When I was 16, my family didn't have the internet. Yes that is right in 2005 my parents refused to have the internet at our house. I was technology deprived- which is the reason I contribute to being technological deprived now. But, as we talked, my parents cracked down a bit on rules that used to be enforced, and now are going to be again. Because honestly, it is for the safety of everyone!

I LOVED the talk given by Larry Lawrence in the Sunday Morning Session of Conference about Parenting Teenagers. It does take courage. You go Parents.
