I'm not too worried about that tbh. It's the same thing that when she gets a mobile phone it will be very limited, only call, text and messaging. No social media until she's 18. Thanks though for checking.
Good luck. We tried that rule too, it has led to so much stress and fighting. I'm certainly not suggesting to not try and hold the line. I'm just wishing you luck with it.
I don't even see how it's possible to stop someone from using social media until they're 18 unless they truly don't want to.
After watching The Social Dilemma and seeing that people who worked high up at eg Facebook also didn't want their kids on there, I'm going to try to do the same.
That... seems a bit too extreme, I honestly don't think you can achieve that... unless you get her a dumb phone and assuming she never gets her own by her own means.
Working with your kids to have a decent social media experience? That I can see!
With Family Link everything can be locked down.
Yes it may sound extreme but based on The Social Dilemma and presentations at our school from people who did a lot of research into this topic, I'm going to go with their recommendation to keep them off social media until 18. Probably won't be easy indeed.
