    That's why I dropped all of Facebook.

    I find myself getting on there less and less these days, do use messenger quite a bit though. The kids seem to have switched to Instagram and the Twitter.

    Yeah, Snapchat. I find myself caring less and less about all that stuff the older I get, but nice to know what kinda trouble the kids and their friends are getting into though.

    My little critters are too young for any social media. Pisses me off my step son has a tablet at his dad's. 5 years old, really?? And it's not that I'm such a tight ### to buy him one, I sincerely don't think kids under 14 need that stuff. Video games etc. They need to be outside or helping mom.

    At 14 I'll get them a job. THEN they can buy their entertainment.

    My youngest has a Ipad, But its mainly because of all the educational games they got and not to mention the school has moved "Homework" to it also. He actually downloads the assignment and does it on the Ipad then it automatically sends it back to the teacher and a copy to my email. =X

    They've got that in my daughters school (5y.o) I still make her do hard copies in case her work gets lost on the return trip to the schools server.

    My 9 year old uses this app that teaches Spanish, but makes it fun, and he uses it all the time. Not all time on a tablet is bad

    you have to weigh the risks involved by venturing into any J...

    Is a free slice worth the risk of getting your hood tore off by a mega fleeter ??


    tough call on that one man..
