The strong positive influence of social media on teenagers like feeling more connected to friends and to express creativity

Social media are a digital meeting place of minds!

As almost always it is about individual choices and responsibility! The earlier teenagers learn about this, the better.

As usual, the many warnings, alarmism, and hysteria about social media are exaggerated! More superstition than anything else!

"While the government tries to pass legislation aiming to change teens’ experience online, a new study from Pew Research shows that some teens find social media to be a positive influence. According to the study, 74% of U.S. teens said social media makes them feel more connected to their friends, and 63% said that online platforms give them a place to express their creativity."
