Nevertheless, I think the truth lies somewhere in between and, as you have already said, it's the task of parents and teachers to help the students to use such media as the internet appropriately.

The style is really nice, it is clearly arranged and the writing is big enough so that it can easily be read. I also agree with you in certain points, for instance that social networking is not only a bad thing to do. Yet, I have to admit that I think you contradict yourself to a certain extent when you say that it is the parents who should teach their children the appropriate use of the internet and then state that we as future teachers have to show our students how to use the new media appropriately later in the text. Apart from this, as I have said above, I can agree with you in many points. Go on like this, Jaana Hey Valentina,
