I was looking at your site and was going to offer you a website facelift and the opportunity to add a forum or social networking component to your existing site. After reading the post I must comment one your post. It seems obvious that people that have deficiencies in their real life relationships will also have them in their virtual ones. The social networks just help ( immediately sometimes) reinforce those deficiencies. <b>Thanks for the BLOG.</b>Saheedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905351422479874502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376050346911543738.post-50706422446798886792010-01-05T08:00:50.035-08:002010-01-05T08:00:50.035-08:00Hi Lee,

As with all modes of communication, I encourage us to study both the conscious and unconscious messages, as well as the effects that may be more subtle than they are apparent.<br /><br />Glad you stopped by!<br /><br />MelissaMelissa Groman, LCSWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15341980298878431177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376050346911543738.post-82408590382336147792010-01-01T11:15:29.315-08:002010-01-01T11:15:29.315-08:00Hi Melissa,

That spouses and parents can know more about family members behavior seems to be a positive. My daughter is in India for 5 months, yet I can keep up with her on a daily basis through social networking sites.

I think of this age group as particularly vulnerable in regards to interacting socially with other kids. It takes bullying, gossip, etc to a new level that's easily accessible and easy to pass on to a large number of people very quickly. It would be beneficial to teach young people skills to navigate this online world.Emptyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12240281777077363101noreply@blogger.com
