Social Media and Kids: To Ban or to Teach?

Prolonged use of social networks can disconnect a child from reality, cause stress, and distort their value system. Platforms where control is minimal and any content becomes accessible are particularly dangerous.

One of the effective ways to keep children away from social media addiction is parental control, by setting limits on the time spent on the phone and the applications used. Experts note that more important than technical limitations is the formation of trust and open communication between parent and child.
