   Nice photos. I think it would be even more eerie seeing the photo where it happened, like a ghost!

   Its crazy most of the men refused to get on the lifeboats so the women children can live and the couple of men that did were seen as cowards & their social lives were ruined.

   Titanic never gets old, to me. I’ve been fascinated by it since I learned of her story as a kid in the early 90′s.

   Thank you for these haunting photos.

    amazing and timeless images that most likely wouldnt mean by far as much if it wouldnt have been for the tragedy.

    Regarding the New York American newspaper photo of Titanic steaming into a massive berg: I’m glad to see that overly enthusiastic photo-shopping isn’t something new to this era.

    I’m struck by the image of the young woman and her two children. She looks utterly blank, as if she’s in shock. Wonder who she is and if she had just lost her husband.

    I think the same thing happens with older kids too, when they are exposed to media that is too complex for their social/emotional development. When the movie Mean Girls came out, some of our 5th grade girls were allowed to watch it at a sleepover. They promptly made their own “burn book” like the bullying characters in the movie, and wreaked havoc in the 5th grade girls’ social world. They got the message to do whatever it takes to be “popular” but not the message about how others would think that those behaviors would make others dislike them. I immediately thought of this situation when I read the study. Ironically, the prevention lessons about bullying and relational aggression that I had taught previous to this incident, and the interventions that I put into place in response to it were based on Rosalind Wiseman’s book Queen Bees and Wannabees, which was the inspiration for Mean Girls.
