[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omg. It is 100% ok for adults to ask seniors about college. And it is 100% ok for kids to say they have no idea. These questions have been asked for decades. It is only now that kids feel uncomfortable. Which is so funny because [b]they aren’t private any longer. Their Snaps and Instas are filled with every aspect of their teen life[/b] but this somehow crosses the line?  Please. [/quote]
A PP made an interesting point about Gen Z and privacy. This just isn’t true anymore. People in their 20s and 30s overshare on social media. Teens use theirs to present a faux image of themselves and almost never actually share things about themselves except for on private Snapchat stories with no more friends than would be at a large sleepover party.

As the PP with 5 teens — um that is a no. Sure it is in their “private” story so they only send it out to their 400 closest friends (either in a group or individually to keep up their streaks). They are private from adults but over sharing with their “friends”— who May be the kid they just met at the gas station and happened to be cute/hot. [/quote]
