[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Snap is a one person log in at a time. If you login it will kick your kid off and they will know someone is on their account. The posts sent are color coded: a picture is red, video purple and chat is blue.  All will disappear after being opened. If you set the chat setting to 24 hrs it will disappear in 24 hours. Stories posted by people are up for 24 hours unless removed sooner. If you screenshot anything a notification pops up on the sender's screen. If you don't set privacy settings, your kid's exact location is seen on a map for anyone who has your kid as a friend on snap.

It is the phone call of previous generations. It is ripe for misuse and social exclusion as kids can see others at parties they were not invited to or people together at a location when they were not invited. This has caused major drama.  Boys will 100% be asking girls for nudity and girls are asking boys. There is a feature you can make a private story and have select people access it. I am told boys use these private or vault settings for a showcase of girls nudes.

It's really just a gross app. But your kid will be an outlier if they do not have it.  [/quote]

Bumping. What to do? I have a 14 year old? Should I just delete the app? [/quote]
