    Let this set an example. Social media is being used without caution or care. People need to understand that indecent behaviour even on social media is still indecent behaviour. Cannot sit behind the screen and type or share undignified, derogatory or hurtful posts or statement or articles. Social media etiquette needs to be in place, just like it is in person.
