As educators, how often do you deserve kids (including college students even if they shouldn't be called "kids" at that age) copy each other's behaviors? It could be an electronic game, pictures or videos of doing something dangerous to be popular, or other things? I'm not talking about things that are illegal or illegal at that age like smoking, drinking, and drugs. We all know that some kids use those substances, and that it's not a trend that will stop soon. I also don't want to include vaping. This can also relate to bullying and being mean, such as if all of a sudden every kid needs to do something or the popular kids will tease (or worse) anybody who won't do it. An episode of "Doug," one of the original three Nicktoons (Nickelodeon cartoons) was about copying. Every week, the kids watch a show with Dylan Farnum's look of the week. One episode, Dylan's look is what Doug wears everyday. Doug wears the same outfit everyday, which is simple for an animated character to do. Everyone tells Doug he's copying Dylan Farnum. He invites kids to his room to show them that he wears the same thing every day, and they think he's showing he Dylan Farnum collection. Even Doug's friend, Skeeter, isn't mad but thinks Doug is copying Dylan. At the end, Doug asks someone why he or she isn't criticizing Doug for copying Dylan Farnum, and the answer is "that was last week's look." Have any of you looked at social media or otherwise researched what is popular to prepare for dangerous things you might see kids do even though that's unrelated to the job of being a professor or teacher?
