If you think your teen spends a lot of time on social media during the school year, chances are they will spend even more time on it over the summer. In a FOX 32 News special report, Elizabeth Matthews looks at some of the new trends and pitfalls facing both parents and teens.
"It is immediate," Webb said.
"There will absolutely be an increase in their social media usage. These apps are designed to continue to gain the attention of our kids.""When I don’t get that response, it consumes me as a child because my cognitive ability is still growing," Webb said."When we look at this Pew research, it showed that they feel that they can’t control the content that they are seeing," Wistocki said.
"As technology goes, ChatGPT, Snapchat AI, I think kids are going to be more dependent on it and the problem is they are getting younger. I think more kids are getting younger is because parents think they have control of it and they really don’t," Wistocki said.While families worry about those photos being on the internet permanently, there is now a tool to take them down.
When it comes to playing video games and online predators, Wistocki said artificial intelligence programs are combing through dialogue. While some students may struggle if confronted with an online predator, others may not, thanks in part to some of the cyber safety education they've received in school.
