Instagram

我有两个孩子，一个女儿14岁，一个儿子16岁。我记得我大儿子11岁的时候有一次谈话。他说他所有的朋友都有这种病。我自己做了一些调查，告诉他他需要12岁。不过会有一些规则，他的妈妈我和会遵循他的帐户。我们不想让他在这上面浪费太多时间。Instagram确实让时间过得飞快，我们不想让他被遗弃，但我们希望他不要在Instagram上浪费太多时间。他每天看屏幕的时间限制为2小时;Instagram/游戏/Youtube/Netflix都在其中。通常我们不会关心他是如何分配时间的，但游戏对大脑有好处，而Instagram则没有。 The maximum amount he could ever spend on it was 35 minutes. And we checked every week. He did go over it sometimes so we had to reinforce the rules and suspend it once in a while. He is now 16 and still follows the rules. As parents we tend to underestimate kids, if you clearly state rules and punishments, they will follow. With my daughter I was worried about creeps. I was worried about the bad people getting to communicate with her. I let her get Instagram for her 14th birthday, we had very strict rules for her. She could follow only her friends and celebs. NO STRANGERS. Strangers could follow her because teens want followers but, she could only follow her friends. We made it clear to her that if someone started flirting with her over Instagram, and she didnt know them, it was not ok. We wanted her not to be scared of us forcing her to delete it so that was not an option. What I've learned from friends children is that if you do not let your child use it, they will use it on their own terms ignoring you. That opens many bad doors, its better to let them know that we are allowing them, not that they are doing it themselves. After all, how long can parents control their kid. Instagram is a double sided sword. Used wisely it can be a good tool. Used unwisely, could lead to problems. As parents that's where we come in, don't be afraid to take their phone without warning and check it. Before giving them Instagram lay out the rules. My rules are; 1. Strangers can follow, but no conversations with them. 2. Parents follow the account to see what stuff they post. 3. Strict time limit of 35. 4.Parents can search phone if wished. 5. It can be suspended until further notice as punishment. PS: I have found that Instagram is much safer than Facebook and SnapChat.

可怕的应用!就恶心!所有的青少年都抑郁是因为他们看到了不真实的东西!ps过的模特照片、半裸照片等等。还有很多捕食者，所以父母的照顾总是更好的。而且这个应用程序总是出故障。一个帖子花了30分钟!!它总是让我的手机死机!当我要发布的时候，它变得超级慢，然后它完全阻止了我的手机，我失去了发布!我得再做一遍。 feel super bad for the people who live of the work for Instagram because the app is terrible full of bugs !Not to mention the Photoshop that make us all think we're worthless...Mark Zucker,u can do better than this lol ,ur algorithm works better than the app functions!
