Separately, I don't get your attitude, OP. Some teens aren't into social media, some don't vape, some don't do weed, some don't drink, some don't do drugs, some don't have sex, etc. Statistically, those circles will overlap and it's perfectly possible to get a kid who doesn't do any of those things. Maybe it's your kid, maybe it's not. But gloating that parents are blind to their children's behavior is weird.
Social media does not equal drugs. It is a communication channel and whether you like it or not, part of the modern world that your kids will need to navigate in order to be successful. Sorry, it’s true.
