Perhaps, have you ever read mean things online? Do you know that it is not okay to post mean things? Now
read the dialog about three people who are classmates talking about their experiences posting mean things
online during breaktime in their class.
Dean : Hi Nana, have you heard the news about a netizen who is sued for posting rude words

online to an actress? I have posted the same thing to someone’s status but luckily, no one

sued me. What about you?

Nana : Shamefully, yes. I have once posted mean things online, like posting rude words on

someone’s status. Sometimes, about complete strangers, sometimes about people I went to

school with, and then other times, even about my friends! What did you post?

Dean : I’ve definitely sent messages,I typed, ‘You’re not goodenough being the class leader’, maybe

an hour later, I thought, hmm, perhaps I shouldn’t have said that. And there are definitely

things that I have said since then, which maybe years later I thought, hmm, I’m not, I’m not

really happy with that.

Carmela : That was true. I am sorry to overhear your talks. I posted the same thing. I commented,

‘This is the worst art I’ve ever seen!, you’re very rubbish’, I was just being really mean. It was

actually not necessary to say it. , not needed. What do you usually post Nana?

Nana : Normally it was like an in-joke, or something that happened at school, or, you know,

something that we’d been talking about. What happened to the person Carmela?

Carmela : The person commented back, saying that I’d really hurt their feelings. I started crying

because I felt so guilty for saying such mean things.

Dean : Yes, we are too mean. If you ever post anything online that you do feel worried about,

please make sure you talk to a trusted adult or maybe you might even want to talk to your

friend.

Nana : I agree with you Dean. It’s all about how you deal with those things afterwards. You know,

apologize to the person that you may have upset.

Carmela: From my experience, I learned ‘Don’t comment mean things that you wouldn’t say

to someone in person.’

Nana : Yes, it is so true. If it’s somebody that you know, let them understand why you did it. If it

was a joke, you know, it’s not an excuse but at least you’re offering some kind of

explanation.

Dean : Okay guys,,,If I can say that online life can be filled with loads of different surprises, but,

remember, should anything throw you off, you can talk to an adult you trust.

Nana : Okay. Noted!

Carmela: Guys…the class has started. We’ll talk again later.
