Parents, help your kids learn what to post and what not to post. Here are some filters to share. Filter 1: Is this "corrupt talk" or "helpful for building others up" talk? This one puts Ephesians 4:29 into action. Don't say negative things about people, just encourage. Filter 2: Would this give a future employer a reason not to hire me? Why get yourself fired before you even get hired? And Filter 4: Am I chasing affirmation? Don't post for the applause of men. Rest in the affirmation of heaven.
