When principals hear the words Twitter and Facebook they cringe. Immediately, visions of excessive socialization, time wasted, and meaningless conversations in the form of updates come to mind.

Over the past few months, many kids turned to digital tools such as social media or games to pass the time. So much so that one has to wonder about the overall effect on a social and emotional level.
