I really applaud your efforts, I'm afraid I just ran out of energy trying to be positive on reddit. The world needs more people like you.

I do feel like it's going to be realy important to teach my kids as they grow up, how to have good conversations online,and how these sort of mediums often twist the perseption of what they say without them realising.

I think it's easier to be a jerk online so it's more prevalent here but, in my opinion, the ways in which people weasel out of their conversational responsibilities are no different than most in-person encounters of the same nature. If I care enough about the person or the cause, it might make sense to stick around and hold their hand. It does get tiresome.
