Seattle Public Schools has taken on social media in an unprecedented way. This week the district filed a lawsuit against social media companies. Social media is riddled with cyberbullies and kids focusing more on their social profiles than academic performance. It is such an obsessive component of our students' lives today that television series like Mattel's Barbie Dreamhouse have entire shows dedicated to vlogging. This lawsuit may be hard to win, but it will be outstanding to see social media providers at least called to question how they support and endorse content produced by minors.
