The article “Teaching Kids How to Break up Nicely” was brought to discussion when 200 teens from different schools in Boston got together and talked about break ups from and on Facebook. That discussion resulted in questions such as “Should you delete pictures of your ex after splitting up?” or “Is it okay to unfriend your last girlfriend to stop you from looking at her profile?” The Boston Public Health commissions were the people that held a conference and actually begun this “Break Up” discussion among teens. The students included in the conference came up with a list. The stated all the healthy and unhealthy things to do after a break up. Students gave opinions and examples of how to there own relationships ended because of incidents on Facebook. The conference gave the teens examples of what healthy break ups were. From pictures and videos of celebrities to telling them the rights and wrongs. The moral lesson was to have teens discuss relationship problems in person rather than Facebook. Many teens realized it and hope it would fix future break ups.
Well my opinion about the article was that I fully understand everything the article was trying to let me know, including its moral lesson. I’ve had problems on Facebook with my past relationships as well so understood how the teens in the article was feeling. I also believe that since they have facts and info on unhealthy and healthy ways for teens to break up they should inform teens all over the world. This article taught me something and I hope to use it in the future.
