Anything you post on the Internet will be there forever. Any one can see what you post. Your parents, friends, and strangers have access to whatever you post. Your post could be copied and posted everywhere. What you thought was was okay to post could be seen by a college administrator or a future employer. What you post today could not only be embarassing in the future, but could stop you from getting into college or getting a job.
