Etiquette in technology

Okay kiddo, let's learn about etiquette in technology!

Just like how we have manners when we're eating or playing with our friends, we also have manners when we're using technology.

One important etiquette rule is to be careful with what we say online. We should always be kind and respectful to others, just like we would be in person. If we wouldn't say something to someone's face, we shouldn't say it online either.

Another important rule is to be mindful of how much time we spend on technology. It's important to take breaks and do other things like go outside and play, read a book, or spend time with our family and friends.

When we're texting or emailing someone, we should always use proper grammar and spelling. It's also polite to respond to messages in a timely manner, so we don't keep someone waiting for too long.

Lastly, we should always ask for permission before using someone else's technology, like their phone or tablet. It's important to respect other people's property and privacy.

So there you have it, technology etiquette is all about being kind, respectful, and responsible when using technology.
