As we all know that social networking sites have changed and influenced our life at a large extent. Kids are also getting involved in this. I have read a nice article about “ should kids be allowed to have a Facebook account?” And really liked it. In my opinion kids under the age of 10-11 should not be allowed to have their social accounts. What you guys think? Do you allow your child to surf on such sites?

Sarah, we have a teen age daughter and we still dont let her on these sights. we feel they do more harm than good.Theres always something negative about them on the news. I personally feel that they cause anti-social behavior.But thats just my opinion.

Hey Randy... Thanks for sharing your views. I agree with you. I also feel that such activities promote anti social behavior. Hence Being a parent, we must restrict our kids to use such sites. We should promote some other activities like outdoor and indoor games, general knowledge and quiz for the kids' mental and physical growth.
