Teens and Parents See Screen Time Differently
New research shows that teens use TikTok and Instagram mainly for entertainment, news, and following celebrities. Snapchat is used as their main source to stay in touch with their friends. Teens say that the biggest benefit to social media is the connections that can be made.
There are still major concerns, as 3 quarters of teens say that cyberbullying is a problem for their age group.
Parents are also concerned. They claim that social media is hurting teens sleep, mental health, and think that their teens are spending too much time looking at screens.
