[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the restriction your friend has is to the Internet in general… that’s not realistic. I do think it’s possible for teens not to have social media accounts. [/quote] Depends on what you mean by social media. They can live without tik tok, instagram, twitter, facebook, snapchat, etc.; but teens communicate via group chat media, like discord, etc. and collaborate on schoolwork via google platforms and what not, and of course YouTube has become an essential for tutoring and school etc. They don't call each other on the phone, don't use email unless forced to by college admissions, and texting happens but generally is too limiting to them. So if by no access to social media this mom means cutting her child off from every means of communication their peers use today other than face to face encounters, then I'd say that's a bad idea and not likely possible.[/quote]
