  1. This video is such a great depiction of reality!!! I see so many pictures of people doing ridiculous things, or wearing ridiculous things, and I always think……What are they thinking?! People really need to think hard about what they want others to remember them by, and what they do not mind having re-surface on day. It is true, what is put on the internet is there forever….maybe our kids will see the things we have posted………

  2. I think this video is GREAT. It really shows young people what posting pictures online can become. I also believe this video shows what sending pictures over any mobile device can become. Often times young people do not realize what they are doing when they send a picture through a mobile device. Young people do not realize that relationships may not last, but that person will always have their picture. They do not realize that the person they sent the picture to could send the picture to anyone. I love that this video is in a high school setting. This video really hits home to high school students, because it is set in a high school setting.

  3. I fully agree with both comments above. A picture says a thousand words, and students should understand that one single picture can destroy a lifelong reputation. It is often difficult to make students understand this, but with media help, such as this video, maybe students would understand more.

  4. I absolutely love this video. It speaks volumes about the dangers of posting things online. Many students fail to recognize the actual risks that can arrive. Everyone can see what you post on the Internet, and you cannot take anything back. There was this one time when a classmate of mine posted a picture of herself with an alcoholic beverage. She ended up losing both her job and her reputation because she could not simply delete the picture. People actually had the picture saved for future proof. The moral of this video is to think before you post anything. Think about the consequences that could happen.
