I have three teenage daughters who are currently not allowed on social media. But I want to give them some ability before they become adults. My eldest gave me a PowerPoint presentation on why she should be allowed on Snapchat, lol.
She made some good points. Her friend group has a group text and she wants to keep up with everyone but doesn’t want to get the ding notifications constantly.
Feels like a good opportunity for a Fediverse platform. Like a closed Mastodon/Pixelfed server and have some parental controls. Any projects out there?
They will encounter the awful sides of the internet in their lives. It is a fact of the internet.
What are you doing/going to do to prepare them for that eventuality?
You can’t protect children from life—you can only prepare them to handle it as best they can.

This isn’t a real thing is it? I never knew anyone who ever had such a talk, it was always something we’d hear about in American movies/shows, but it doesn’t actually happen does it?
