I read a newspaper where a news anchor was arguing and said it's not good and no point for opening social media accounts for our children especially the young ones of age zero months to around ten . And I think is a good argument for various reasons such as privacy . But it seems like a trend everywhere. Will you do that for your kid or you will rather wait till a certain age or still will you leave the decision to your child when they mature up and can decide for themselves?

I'm still waiting for Pretty to be old enough to manage a social media account. She's 33 years old. How long do you think I should wait?

You can wait until she's ready that's the only solution

Yes, social media accounts should not available for children who are not adults. Children should concentrate on their studies instead of creating social media accounts.

I don't think it's good and kids should be allowed to have account only when they know what is right and wrong for them

I agree with you . Well said! It's not good to do things which can sometimes have harm on our children

@Laurakemunto Many people open account on the name of their kids and use it and I don't know why they need to do that

@Butterfingers I wonder too it's not good to me maybe they have valid reasons to do that but for me it's a complete no.
