Do some of you parents with older teens truly believe they’re not on TikTok?

Lololololol

Mine are not. My 20 year old is not on social media at all. My 15 year old's poison of choice is Discord (which can be much worse than TikTok, depending on who you chat with).

Separately, I don't get your attitude, OP. Some teens aren't into social media, some don't vape, some don't do weed, some don't drink, some don't do drugs, some don't have sex, etc. Statistically, those circles will overlap and it's perfectly possible to get a kid who doesn't do any of those things. Maybe it's your kid, maybe it's not. But gloating that parents are blind to their children's behavior is weird.

Mine is not and isn’t interested. You are a bit obtuse OP

Not everyone is trashy, OP. Do you have tattoos? I bet you do.

TikTok is fine in moderation. There is so much worse a kid can get into, OP. Surely you know that? You sound so moronic.

Tik tok is literally fine. The only issue is addiction. But it’s harmless for high school teens in moderation.

Insta, snap, discord, what’s app, etc.. are all worse.

+1 Can these recent posters please get back to Tiktok and leave DCUM to the grownups?

Social media does not equal drugs. It is a communication channel and whether you like it or not, part of the modern world that your kids will need to navigate in order to be successful. Sorry, it’s true.

You’re raising a kid who will not fit in. Maybe that’s fine but know that

[Anonymous]

Eh, not all kids want to fit in, by it doesn't take too long to look at Tiktok and see what other kids with more time on their hands are doing. Snapchat is 100% worse.

Until recently, Tiktok has blown all other sorts of social media out of the water. I love TT, though the algorithm is sending me way more ads and promoted content now. Which is why I have downgraded my rating.
