movie about internet

-need internet to talk to friends cuz everyone is on it. its like a curency, you need to use it
-some people act themselves while others act as a completely different person
-parents dont know its going on
-nobody is really in charge
-the very public lives of kids growing up online
-even when on vacation, texting
-teachers almost have to be entertainers
-need to look a kids less as victims and more as participants
-internet is a way to "get it out there"; get things off your chest at anytime and you can say whatever you want and not get judged for it (as opposed to telling family and friends)
-internet has created biggest generation gap
-its easy to go online in places where parents cant control/have any idea (library, friends houses)
what were the people of frontline trying to say?
-things you wouldnt do in person you do online
-internet as new weapon in arsenal of adolescents
-this isnt going away so rather than hating it and trying to get rid of it, accept it and find a way to deal with this fundamental change in a way of life
