The work experience is better if it's in customer service. Also, you must maintain a 2.5+ GPA to be in clubs at high school and university levels most of the time. PLUS if they complain about the essay? Well... if you wanna type, learn how correctly and how not to get a virus/scammed. 😂

OH! And if they can SEE what they are missing, but not allowed to partake in, it'll create FOMO and they'll want to learn. Plus companies can't complain because they can still target them with ADs.

(And maybe less bots since it's a process to get "verified" haha)

It's win-win, right? 😅

I can’t imagine the damage having social media as a tween. It has to be so damaging.

Hell, based on today’s wild wild web experiences I’d propose not until your frontal lobe is fully developed. 😬😂

Amen

And 16 is pushing it but I want you to have 2 years using it under your village for education, nurturing, and support.

But my millennial ass didn’t have a Facebook or MySpace until I graduated High School

And if you have it younger, you gotta build it from scratch! Code that bad boy up like a MySpace!

I never had a My Space, but I had my own email at a young age (12ish?), though rarely used. What I did have was AIM/MSN accounts at the age of 13. I'm going to do it differently with my kids! They are allowed some YouTube but have NO media accounts; they're 12 and 8.
