    Andrea Andrea! Hey this is awesome as it relates to what's really going on in our culture. Evil seems to always catch up with technology too...I can just envision this scary scenario you've painted. I believe your entry was unique as it related to the internet issues...luv, gwendolen

    I like that you chose to incorporate Facebook in your entry, Andrea...so relevant to the case of cyber bullying..I'm sure this will be in the Winners' circle. Love, Annalise

    I think that you touch on an important problem in society. With the increase in social media, people are losing the ability to communicate and problem solve without violence. It is important for everyone to remember that most communication is non-verbal. We are losing those skills.
