  1. Kids post publicly on social media under their own name.

  2. School find out what they said publicly.

Not blaming the victims, but like... parents really need to be teaching kids what social media is.

I'm glad I was a socially awkward kid that was too shy to post things publicly. (I mean like.... I didn't even have an account because I didn't want people to see "0 friends" on the profile lol)
