Our game plan for the Loop was temporarily interrupted when Common Sense Media released this report: Common Sense Media Social Media/Social Life 2018 Study. Social Media is not going away. Reacting as parents and teachers to how our children behave and feel when interacting on social media is difficult.  This important study sheds a little light on the perspectives of teens using SnapChat, Instagram, Facebook, etc. We might not share many answers or tips on the pod but finding answers starts with an informed discussion.

Here are some additional resources for your perusal:
