"Le film nous entraîne dans les mondes virtuels que se créent les jeunes et soulève la question de la transormation par Internet des expériences de l'adolescence. Les enseignants s'interrogent sur la manière d'approcher une génération qui ne lit plus d'imprimés. Par peur des prédateurs du Web, les parents et éducateurs ont mis l'emphase sur la sécurité informatique mais de nombreux jeunes pensent qu'il n'y a pas lieu d'avoir peur. Les dimensions sociales de l'adolescence s'accentuent avec les identités avec lesquelles les jeunes jouent sur des sites comme MySpace et Facebook et l'intense pression qu'ils subissent de la part de leurs pairs dans ces mondes virtuels. Les parents ne savent pas comment réagir devant les mondes de plus en plus privés dans lesquels vivent leurs enfants et ne comprennent ni le potentiel créatif ni les véritables risques de ce nouvel environnement."
"Examines the very public private worlds that kids are creating online, raising important questions about how the Internet is transforming childhood. Not so long ago, the digital world was the province of adults, business, and the world of work. Today, there is a very definite teen cyberculture, developed by kids who are growing up online. This digital world provides a private space, where kids communicate with their friends, do schoolwork, and also face the dangers posed by predators and cyberbullies. The Internet is forging a society with fundamentally different properties, leaving parents grapple with the question of how to manage kids interactions with a world where the partition between public and private has effectively disappeared."
"Jessica Hunter was a shy and awkward girl who struggled to make friends at school. Then, at age 14, she reinvented herself online as Autumn Edows, a goth artist and model. She posted provocative photos of herself on the Web and fast developed a cult following. "I just became this whole different person," Autumn tells Frontline."
"Investigates how radically the Internet is transforming the experience of childhood. Takes viewers inside the very public private worlds that children are creating online. Teenagers, parents, teachers and scholars contribute."@en
"To study the impact of the Internet on adolescence, it helps to examine the subject through the eyes of teens and their parents. This episode of Frontline enters the private worlds that young people, for better or worse, are creating online. In doing so, it brings viewers face-to-face with issues that kids confront every day-bullying, harassment, alienation, sexuality, and even bizarre forms of celebrity. Viewers are enabled to explore the complicated and often nebulous lines being drawn between the real and virtual worlds and how these new paradigms are affecting today's impressionable minds. Distributed by PBS Distribution. (60 minutes)."@en
""Jessica Hunter was a shy and awkward girl who struggled to make friends at school. Then, at age 14, she reinvented herself online as Autumn Edows, a goth artist and model. She posted provocative photos of herself on the Web and fast developed a cult following. "I just became this whole different person," Autumn tells Frontline. "I didn't feel like myself, but I liked the fact that I didn't feel like myself. I felt like someone completely different. I felt like I was famous." (From the US, in English) -- SBS website."
""MySpace. YouTube. Facebook. Friendster. Nearly every teen in America is on the Internet every day, socializing with friends and strangers alike, "trying on" identities, and building a virtual profile of themselves - one that many kids insist is a more honest depiction of who they really are than the person they portray at home or in school. In "Growing Up Online," FRONTLINE peers inside the world of this cyber-savvy generation through the eyes of teens and their parents, who often find themselves on opposite sides of a new digital divide. A generation with a radically different notion of privacy and personal space, today's adolescents are grappling with issues their parents never had to deal with: from cyber bullying to instant "Internet fame," to the specter of online sexual predators. FRONTLINE producer Rachel Dretzin investigates the risks, realities, and misconceptions of teenage self-expression on the World Wide Web."--Frontline web site."@en
