Teen Cyberbullying Investigated: Where Do Your Rights End and Consequences Begin? (Paperback)
Judge Jacobs “gets it”! He explains complex legal cases on a level that teens, parents, and educators can all understand without a law degree! Not only that, the reader comes away with a good feel for why it is important to know what these cases are about, and how they might relate to you personally. He frequently asks the reader, “How does this decision affect you?” and “How would you decide this case?” He explains “The bottom line,” and suggests additional “Things to think about.” Educators or parents could easily use those sections to turn any chapter into a classroom activity or to start a conversation with their teenagers around the dinner table. That is why Judge Jacobs “gets it”: This book is a great tool to provoke dialogue between teens and adults and help bridge the huge “digital divide” between us. As a professional in the cyberbullying field, a big “thank you” to the Judge for this much-needed-tool.
