Children must allowed to use social media
Answers
1. Group inclusion
Social media makes sense in the world of teen socialization (and teen angst). Dr. Barbara Winter, a Florida-based psychologist with over 20 years of experience, explains, “Social media allows teenagers to be part of a group, which is a cornerstone to self-esteem.” And according to a 2014 study published in the Clinical Child and Family Psychology Review, teen social media use “provides new contexts for reflecting upon and trying out new identities, for learning and attempting new social skills and for establishing affiliations.”
2. Online learning
This might make you feel a little less guilty as the parent of an Instagrammer: Technology counts as one of our cultural languages. “Social media is a great tool for learning, especially for kids that are almost glued to their computers,” Katya Seberson, speed-reading and memory teacher at ExecutiveMind, says. “It bridges the gap between the fictional world of video games… and the real world. Social media is in between the two. It talks about real world events, but it’s happening in a digital form.”
3. Access to news
Good luck getting your teen to subscribe to The Wall Street Journal. But that doesn’t mean they have to be out of the loop of world news. “Teens often favor social media for news and happenings in the world rather than looking at traditional news sources,” Winter explains.
