[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only have a third grader but it's already pretty obvious which types of parents are which. It wouldn't suprise me if this is happening in two years, but it won't be my daughter. The girls who's parents allow this (or don't know) are not the kinds I want her hanging out with anyway. I can already see the complete lack of oversight in some families.[/quote] I have a daughter in MS. This post is spot on. There are kids on Snapchat and Instagram as early as 4th-5th grade, and by 2nd-3rd grade you can guess whose parents will be condoning this. A kid can be well-liked and have a very full social life in ES and MS without social media. Our DD just got a phone in 8th grade, and her friends are a mix of kids with and without phones. Phones and social media use are pervasive but not universal. Thank God.[/quote]
