A way to understand the limited and precarious (marginal, poor, disadvantage) online participation of hispanic/latino youth from working class families and lower middle class (in a texan suburb) could be the concept of networked individualism. As a matter of fact they seem to be very individualistic. That value of consumer american culture tends to clash with the familism of the latino/hispanic culture. They are not religious as their parents and want to have jobs that are not working class jobs. They also seem totally disconnected from local community and not civic engaged.
