Poll Indicates That Teens Keep Rules of Internet Communication
A new Harris poll indicates that teenagers are savvy about the etiquette of communication through text messaging, cell phones, and other new devices.About 67% of the teens said they would not break up with someone over a phone, email, instant or text messaging or on an Internet social network website. Over 40% said they would not use those means to argue with friends. Teens reported they are most likely to talk about serious and important subjects on a cell phone rather than the more public forms available today. The poll found that most teen communications occur over cell phones, social network websites, and landline phones.
The Harris poll took place December 14-22, 2006 among 1726 people ages 8 through 18.
