I wasn't in high school during the Internet era and we didn't have private journals made public. Even if we did, there's a difference between a local embarassment and an international embarassment.

It's facebook though, so the scope is limited. What we're seeing doesn't have the full names, so someone had the presence of mind to protect those involved before posting it where millions of people would see it.

Unless it gets picked up by a news site or blasted on the front page of Yahoo, it'll blow over.

ETA: Maybe the girls in my high school were worse than most, but there were several "major" events that threatened the social life of various girls such as pregnancies, STDs, drunk sex, publicizing of private information, etc. What this kid posted on facebook seems pretty tame to me.

LOL facebook isn't limited in scope and this stupidity has been posted on a bunch of message boards. No one can control the outcome from there.

Last names were protected but people who have no lives and care enough could find out who these kids are. Such is the Internet era.

The betrayal by the brother would be difficult for me to get over if I was the sister. What he did to her was way worse than her ratting on him to their parents. It was a very cruel thing for him to do, and he is presumably the older sibling.
