I just looked it my daughter's social media accounts...

Thank you for the thread! Ugh. It is daunting.
Does anyone use any product or apps that allow them to see what their kid is doing on phones and laptops? If so please share it. Thank you again for the thread.

Basically make her really uncomfortable and horrified. She’s at the age where actions matter. There are real consequences. Let her feel the horror and weight of her words. I wouldn’t necessarily punish her, but I would take away Snapchat and let her use it once she’s mature enough to use it.

I do think kids go through a stage and say really stupid meaningless gross sex crap. They’re just asserting their independence. Remind her you know this. But also remind her it’s wrong wrong wrong to do it on social media.

What you need to do is talk to her about being careful about what she posts online and how it will affect her image if these posts get out. Also talk about safe sex and respect. Taking away her phone or social media will not stop her from having sex.

A stupid and useless comment from a weak-minded, weak-willed individual.

Just the opposite, actually.

Any time my parent took away or forbid me from something, it just went underground. I absolutely did it anyway. However, they no longer knew about it. The first PP knows that is what will happen.

But, go ahead and keep thinking it will stop.

Stupidest "logic" ever. Why set boundaries at all then?
