Asher said he chooses not to dwell on the troubled past some rescue animals have. “A dog doesn’t have a story it obsesses about. No matter what the dog has been through, they don’t think about it anymore. Dogs are all about the present moment. And that’s what people need to do not only with their own life but also with their dog when they rescue a dog.”

By Scott Gross: Police, school officials ask parents to watch out for ‘Keyboard Courage’
“There is a syndrome that we call ‘keyboard courage,'” Whitt said. “It’s where individuals sit behind a keyboard and believe they have a protection of anonymity. Everything has a path and we can usually find where it came from. If you wouldn’t say it in person you probably shouldn’t say it on the internet. If it’s also not a picture your parents or grandparents would put on the refrigerator you shouldn’t post it online.”

If your child is on an app like Instagram or Snapchat, make sure you are added as a friend or follower,” Whitt said. “If you’re not, get rid of the device. Also, if you don’t know your child’s password or passcode, get rid of the device. If the child won’t share the password or passcode, get rid of the device. As long as you’re the parent and they live under your roof, you have to understand you are in control. Having a device and access to social media isn’t a right, it’s a privilege.”
