So many students look straight to google for the answers. But sometimes they are at risk for receiving dangerous advice or even inappropriate stuff.

When I have questions about my health I go straight to google. I go to trustworthy sites and not sites like wikipedia. In 7th grade, my teacher helped us identify untrustworthy sites by just looking at the spelling. It's important to find a trusted website when it comes to your health because one's health is so important. Websites can easily influence a kids mind.
