[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 554349, member: 14557"] Social media, phones etc. certainly make raising kids more difficult. Even PCs are prone to screw up with them and with difficult children they give so many new opportunities to make a mess. And it is so damned if you do, damned if you don't thing too. With young kids it's quite easy to simply ban them. But when kids start to get closer to adulthood, you simply have to teach them to handle these things. They are part of the modern world and kids need skills to handle them. And those skills can be very difficult to teach for difficult children. Many of them really struggle with understanding what is private and what is public and most of them struggle in anticipating all the possible consequences when they say something. It is so easy for them to mess up. [/QUOTE]
