The Revealers
In the novel, The Revealers, the students of Parkland Middle felt connected through SchoolStream or as the students called it KidNet where they were able to chat or instant message. Most of you do this nightly through MSN Messenger. With KidNet and MSN nobody could break into or eavesdrop on your conversation without it being known. Not anymore. Today’s technology allows you to assume the identity of another person. Do you really know whom you are talking to in the cyber world?
It is 10:00 pm on a Wednesday night; you have finished your homework and you are chatting on MSN with three other friends. After 10 minutes two more friends ask to join the chat. By 10:30 pm five more people have joined and it is fun; however, there is a joke said about one of the people, rapidly followed by an insult. At first, no one knows how to respond, then seconds later a message pops up stating, “I didn’t say that! It isn’t me saying these things. Someone is using my name. What is going on here?”
What is the issue involved in this scenario? Why is this serious?
What would be a responsible way to handle this situation?
How could a situation like this be resolved? How would one of the three main characters from The Revealers deal with this situation?

Answer: This is very serious problem because it could be someone hacking your MSN and he/she could erase everything in your MSN.

A responsible way to handle it would be to change everything. Password and Email. someone that you know who is hacking you. You could go and talk to his/her parents about what he/she did and making him/her to stop. If he doesn't stop the only way would be to make another account.

They have to resolved this talking seriously about what wrong did the hacker do or talk to any parent related to him/her family and try to make him stop do that.

Blog Question: Is bullying a rite of passage of childhood and adolescence? Is it apart of the maturation process one needs to go through to reach adulthood? Explain. Mrs. Hogeboom brings up this topic on page 108.

Answer: About what Mrs. Hogeboom said i think his right. I think bullying is a part of growing up. I think age like us we start bullying is a fuuny game or right to do, but when we grow up we are going to know is not the right thing to bullying each other. I think it is a growing part to be an adult. Some people hate each other for different ways. Everybody gets to bully at least one time. We could say it is a fact of life of our age to get and experience of it. If bullying gets worst adults should help or get involved of it.
