When people go on the Internet - they are awarded by "shock and awe".

In Hollywood, it's called "special effects."

Emojis.....forum policies telling what is allowed and what is not allowed. Hmm....is that like your parents telling you what you can and cannot do? And if so....how are thse policies enforced?

Are parent enforcing their "policies"?

Is Social Media and the Internet enforcing their "policies".

If parents are enforcing theirs....why do we need "policies" at all on Social Media and the Internet?

Step back now and ask the question. Why isn't this part of the discussion in the media?

(it's because chaos is profitable, so don't hold your breath).

I don't see us going back in the right direction. Too much money involved in all these fires.

People who through the Internet now have an audience. "Shock and Awe" rule the day!

And this is why it's refreshing when someone actually behaves in an "adult" fashion. Responsible, respectful, with civility, and attempting to help. Not just grab attention through childish behaviour.

There's a time for fun and a time not for it.

And everything in a balance.
