    Exclamation Do age limits of Internet services really stop children from using restricted sites?

    We all know that the children misuses the Internet services without proper guidance and supervision. The parents are strict and control over certain internet things to be viewed/involved by their children. The minimum age to open an account on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media is 13. But how far the application/website is sure that they are under 13? Because most of them signup to inappropriate sites with fake birthdays. Before they are ready to respond appropriately in social medias they may put themselves in harm by becoming victims of online harassment, solicitation, and cyber-bullying.


    Do you think the children under 13 really need a social life online?
    Or if they need it what are the safe alternatives for children?
    Let's be the change

    Social Media even not safe for adults , So we shouldn't involve children into social media, let them enjoy their social media without this internet and social media.
