Kids on Social Networks

These past few years social networks for teenagers have been big and highly adevertised by the media and those whom you may associate with. As older kids get into this their younger siblings or peers may see them using this and think "hey this is cool I want one." and in a cnn article the disgust this very good. They gave several examples of children having social network accounts and what their parents thought of it. I personally think it alright for young kids to have them as long as their parents monitor what they are doing on them and to make sure they dont spend too much time on it and make it an addiction. My younger brother who is twelve has a facebook and my mom made it with so he could feel like he is in the loop and he doesn't ever really get on it so i guess it all depends on what the situation is.
