Read me his messages
You help run a community origami society and manage its group chat.
The society meets at a folding table in the public library. After a session Lars, who is blind and comes each week with his 16-year-old son, asks you to go through the private messages his son has exchanged with other members and tell him what they say. His son has seemed withdrawn lately and will not talk to him. As an administrator you can open those messages. Members joined believing their conversations were private, the other people in them include adults and other teens, and you do not know what lies behind Lars's worry.
The two questions
- 1What would you say to Lars, and what would you do?
- 2When, if ever, does concern for someone's wellbeing justify looking at what they believed was private?
