You raise a valid concern. While adults theoretically have more discernment, social media can negatively impact people of any age through misinformation, toxic cultures, and distorted reality.

Nowadays, it is difficult to prevent kids to access social media. They have peer pressure. As long as they are not addicted to it and is used under parental guidance, I think it is okay to allow kids to use social media.

I think I will allow my kid to use social site once they are at least 10 years of age (even though the minimum age on most platform is 13 years old)

Kids these days are easily more influenced. It's hard to see children who can stand their ground and be responsible in this current generation. So I believe it's best not to let them join at this early age.

I will not allow children to use social media, considering the presence of online predators. I believe it is best to wait until they reach 15 or 16 years old, or until they prove enough responsibility to use it.
