For one, I worry about the psychological effects. Second, I worry about the pedos and traffickers who use the site. Not to mention all the rest of it. My wife justifies it saying “it’s set on private and I can monitor everything and only their little friends can see it. She doesn’t want to hear me about how that really doesn’t matter when you look behind the scenes at the social media sites. Please send me some reputable and objective info about why these sites are so bad so I can show her. Thanks in advance.

I would simply have her watch the documentary/ movie, " The Social Dilemna". It was created by ex employees at Facebook/ Twitter / Google and whatever other social media, I cant remember them all. It is entertaining and informative. It really opened my wife and my eyes. Some quick research should also show that most heads of social media do not allow their children to be on social media. That should speak for its self. Summation: there is very powerful AI behind these platforms, that are targetting our brains. For those of us who's brains are not finished developing it only compounds the dangers. Computers are getting smart, but they are not benevolent. I dont want my children to have to battle intellectually with them. Hope this helps. Save our kids.
I tried to get her to watch it. She isn’t interested.
