SLCW on Nostr: I think the biggest problem with teen and pre-teen social media use is with predators ...
I think the biggest problem with teen and pre-teen social media use is with predators targeting them, and manipulating them into unsafe circumstances. Kids are nowhere near as sophisticated as they like to believe, and many of them are susceptible to grooming and manipulation. I don't think they should be banned from using it, but I think it would behoove the parents to proactively teach their kids about the dangers and how to handle various types of interactions, and to stay engaged with what their kids are doing on social media.
