Think Before You Share


We live in a world with a lot of information. News, videos, comments, posts… everything comes to our phones in seconds! But not everything we see is true, right?

Many times, the media use strategies to manipulate us. For example, some news shows images that are very shocking just to get attention.They also use emotional words or only show one side of the story. This gives us only one perspective.

A friend told me she read a news article that blamed a group without proof.

This is dangerous. Information that is not clear can create hate or even persecution. So, what can we do?

 We can develop media literacy. This means we learn to understand, think and ask questions about what we see online.

A person who thinks before sharing is more responsible.

It is important to ask:

  • What words do they use?
  • What is the goal of this message?
  • Who wrote this?

My teacher said we must check information before we share it.This helps us avoid lies and injustice. The world is better when people think with care, isn’t it?

Imagen
 Imagine this real story: It was a quiet night in the neighborhood. Marta, who closed her store at 9:00 p.m. as usual, was about to go home. But a few minutes later, a man with a mask and a gun came inside by force and shouted for her to give him the money. It was an armed robbery.

The police came quickly and arrested the man, who did not answer when they asked if he had a gun or illegal drugs. Later, he said he did it because he did not have a job and needed money for his children. The officer said that the man stole because he needed money for his children, didn’t he?
