Remember: What you post leaves a footprint that can last. Think first, and tell a grown-up if you worry.
Mia, Sam and the silly photo
Read the story first. Then answer.
The silly photoMia took a silly photo of herself at her garden gate with her cat Waffles, and posted it for her friends. The next morning she deleted it. But at school Sam said, "I saved it last night, it is so funny!" He had taken a screenshot, a copy of whatever was on the screen. Sam had shown two friends, and they had shown more. Mia told her dad. "Thank you for telling me. Nobody is in trouble," said Dad. They looked at the photo together and saw a number on the gate and a street sign. Mia asked Sam kindly to delete his copy. Some friends deleted it, but not every copy could be found. "That is why we think first," said Dad. Mia and Priya made a rule called the teacher test: would I be fine if my teacher saw this?
