Actor Alec Baldwin thinks social media education should be taught in school

Actor Alec Baldwin thinks that kids should get education in school about the good and the bad of social media and safety while using it, just like they're taught sex education and about the dangers of drug use.

Speaking to Refinery29 in an interview along with his wife Hilaria, with whom he has three young children, Baldwin explained: "Beyond bullying, the obvious issues about bullying online and so forth, I want eventually for schools to teach about [social media]. What it is, what it isn't. What the pitfalls are, what the benefits are. . . . I think that like sex education and drug education, this is the next thing we need to teach kids about in schools."
