Observations.
I read an article that said that Facebook was losing as many 12-15 YO’s as they were gaining +40 YO’s. As it turns out, Hannah is one of them. She deleted her FB account about a month ago. I asked her why, and she said that since high school, she had little association with the people that she had “friend-ed” during middle school, and she simply did not use it. She communicates with her current stable of friends directly at school.
Another observation is her texting habits. She does text, but she is not an avid text-er. And she does not take her phone to school. (“you get in trouble for having phone activity during school, why bring it and take the chance?”) And she HATES texting shorthand.. Don’t BFF or L8R her, or she will delete you. Use proper English. “Handhelds have keyboards now, there is no excuse”… (if you want to text her, her number is 803 439 four five five two. ) She also does not spend much time communicating with her School friends outside of school. There are other behaviors that I wont dwell on (static clothing style, insistence on grammar…)
Our daughter seems like a bit of an anomaly when it comes to stereotypical teenage behaviors.
But that is OK with me.
Imagine that.
