[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Social media is toxic. Taking that addiction with you to college doesn't change that fact.[/quote] So what are you going to do?[/quote] Same approach as teen alcohol use, drug/marijuana abuse, etc.: - you are not using with my consent while you are living in my house. If teens want to get blackout-drunk, go to orgies, or smoke themselves out of college on weed, it’s true: I can’t stop it (hopefully I’ve raised them better than that). But I sure as hell am not going to supply my kid with unlimited vodka & weed throughout their high school years in the misplaced hope they somehow “learn moderation.” I meant what I said about the toxicity of social media, and yes - the harm can be as bad or worse than drugs & alcohol. Just ask all the moms of dead teen girls who committed suicide while suffering Instagram addictions (yeah, Insta contributes to teen suicide; Google it). YMMV.[/quote]
