You know how parents are supposed to warn kids away from cigarettes? Yeah, warn them away from social media of all kinds except parental approved group chats.

On the other hand totally insulating kids isn’t a solution either because then one day they potentially find themselves in the real world with inadequate skills for navigating a toxic environment.

Yeah you let them experience all this gradually once they are ready - just like you let them drive gradually after 16 - first with supervision and later independently in your car and later with their own car.
