[quote=Anonymous]Parent of older teens here (almost 17 and 19). when kids first got their phones, I checked. Now I do not (one of course doesn't even live at home anymore). We did and still talk extensively about use of social media and the fact that anything on those apps can be saved and used against you by colleges, friends, co workers and employers. I am not as worried about sexual predators as my kids do not meet strangers they met on the internet although we certainly discussed when they were younger about not giving out information to strangers like I'm home alone and my address. Parenting is constant check in with them and us about issues, phone use isn't the most worrisome to older teens to be honest, and right now I'm more focused on not drinking and driving, consent, being a good friend when out, etc. [/quote]
