[quote=Anonymous]I’m just venting - I’m a nerd, and my DD isn’t but I don’t let her wear makeup to school or have unlimited iPad time. I don’t let her do a group chat with other kids yet online (this group chat led to 2 participants each 9year old girls writing death threats ot each other), or wear belly shirts to school, or watch tik tok. Two of my mom “friends” are always riding me for “protecting” DD; DH is adamant that we are right staying in our comfort zone. The kids who are “advanced” are also IMO meaner - the sophistication leads to relations aggression and tears (but DD has not really been targeted or a participant at all). She’s an only and this is my only real social media — am I too uptight? Part of me fears I am. But DD is content, does well in school, and has some friends who don’t even have iPads or any screen time really in 4th. Again, just getting out some feelings. But I know there are plenty of people here who can put things in context.[/quote]
