If you think youre such a great parent that you or your kid is safe from the insidious danger of social media, I think youre being naive.

I don’t think that at all. I just make sure they get to experience the rest of the world first. Literature, art, music, games, conversation, meeting people in real life, jumping on a plane and going places and seeing things.

There’s a lot to do in the world. Social media isn’t very attractive if you go and do those things. I’d you don’t then it becomes a portal to a narrow view of the world and then there is trouble.

With that I agree. But it comes down as society as a whole to create that environment for children, not individual parenting.
