[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you are describing is not strict. It’s parenting. This is saying more about you then you actual strictness. [/quote] This is what I tell my kids all the time. But they both have some friends who can really do whatever they want. Also, the vast majority of their friends have social media--so while I think that is just good parenting, it does seem I am firmly in the strict camp on that. There are a lot of mental health struggles in my family and I just do not think social media would be good for my kids' mental health. They tell me they understand that, but I still constantly hear, "everyone has Snap, everyone has Insta, everyone has TikTok." Someone said upthread my "good one" will resent me. They are both really good kids. At least for now. And I am willing to bet that at a minimum, the older one will always be a "good kid." But I feel like I need to stick to my beliefs on some of these things. [/quote]
