"The adolescent mind is essentially a mind or moratorium, a psychosocial stage between childhood and adulthood, and between the morality learned by the child, and the ethics to be developed by the adult” (Erikson, 1963, p. 245).

The acronyms teens really use on social media - CNN

The acronyms teens really use on social media - CNN | Creative teaching and learning | Scoop.it

Padeja Allen's curator insight, October 20, 2015 4:53 PM

   In this article a man named Anderson Cooper talks about an article he had written a few weeks prior to this one about the acronyms teens use on social media. Cooper thought he was helping parents by giving them a list of acronyms that teens used on social media. Unfortunately, shortly after the article was published he received a lot of criticism from teens and their parents telling him that those were not acronyms that they actually used. Cooper then decided to write this article to apologize an also redo the list of acronyms by actually asking a group of teens about the acronyms they use. Now in this article his list seems to be more accurate and less stereotypical.

 

This article has a relation to government because it shows how sometimes the government doesn't take us kids into consideration when doing things. Teens and children usually aren't taken very seriously anymore, especially this generation. Adults look at this generation as out of control and chaotic. They are always stereotyping us, and yes some teens are like this, but it's not fair to say that we all are.

 I feel as though this article is bias as far as actually taking teens sides.
