If you don’t give your child a smartphone, they won’t have access to twitter, instagram, TikTok, etc. There is an insane amount of child prostitution on these platforms and it will be worse on Nostr.
How will a child sell nude photos of themselves online if you do not give them a smartphone? This is a new problem.
How old are you? I grew up with social media, and I know it harmed me and everyone I know. Social media is highly addictive. I was able to use the internet growing up, but it didn’t become an issue until I was given private access to the internet. Why should children have access to social media before they know how to socialize?
What benefit is there to allowing your 13 year old to use social media? To me it seems the negatives far outweigh the positives. My children will be given smartphones at 16. Until then, they can use the internet on a computer in an open space. I might even go as far as to build my own search engine for them.
It is indeed unavoidable that children will be in adult spaces on the internet, but you can completely prevent your children from being victimized (on the internet) if you do not give them the tools to access these spaces. A “children’s space” on the internet is impossible, and would absolutely be targeted by predators. To me the solution is not to give in and give them unfettered access, but instead to do everything in your power to protect them.
