When in fact the harsh truth is that their parents just don't seem to know or care what they're doing. One of them (a 9 year old!) who lives across the street is regularly still up and messaging her at 3 or 4am. I know this because her phone is in the living room at night, and I had to start putting it on aeroplane mode because it was still buzzing all night...


Anyway. My 10 year old is allowed to post to Social Media (Instagram and TikTok) but we follow her and keep a close eye on what is posted, and messaging is disabled. She's only allowed to message people she actually knows on WhatsApp. The only thing we've had to outright say no to is Snapchat.


Make sure she isn’t able to do those LIVE shows .. good luck
