How do you use social media?

A few weeks back I posted that I’d been accosted by a bunch of rude & poorly raised kids. Today, while we were on a regular Sunday walk a woman I don’t know stood there & took a picture of me. I’m sure she posted to her neighborhood chat room. She struck me as the type!

Social media is now used to spread false & often “facts” that are in fact not true. Yes, I made a mistake a few weeks back but I don’t pray on kids not in the neighborhood we live in. Where most of the parents don’t discipline or raise them Right. We’ve been here long enough for me to not like any of the kids that were neighbors with. They’re 9-12 year olds with cellphone & attitude. Not the kind of kids I’d introduce our new puppy to. They’re rude, poorly raised & full of rage with a dash of cellphone put in for good measure.

So, nope I’m not really into the false social media that isolates or try to destroy someone’s reputation because they “think” they have the facts.

What was the best compliment you’ve received?

Last week I met two mature boys who thought I was in my 30’s; something I’ve not been for 20 years!

I was touched & flattered as they complimented me for not wearing make up. They were two boys that had been raised right.

They were not brats with cellphones. Like the harassing kids I had the unfortunate run in with today.

I feel that cellphones have ruined kids completely. 8 year olds who think that screaming at an adult is acceptable behavior.

Society is hanging on by a thread & IF I ever get to take care of a child they will not have a cellphone. The children in my neighborhood are harassing, bratty & spoiled children that don’t have boundaries & think that anything is acceptable behavior.

There’s something to be said for the chance meeting I had last week. There are bright, smart kids out there just not in my neighborhood.
