Social Networks: Facebook Joins Forces with the National PTA
This month, Facebook announced its partnership with the National Parents and Teachers Association (PTA) in an effort to broaden its reach about online safety. Up until now, the National PTA has not addressed online safety issues, but the two parties hope to work on reducing cyberbullying and other social networking dangers to children and teens.
Facebook has approximately 12 million teenagers as members and the PTA boasts 24,000 local community chapters. This announcement comes at a key time for Facebook since the social networking giant has come under fire recently over its privacy practices.
