My niece is not yet 13, the age at which Facebook/Twitter allows users to create an account.
I have a weird feeling that she's been trolling my formerly public Twitter/Facebook with mean comments from fake accounts before I locked them up, because as soon as they weren't public, she requested me from her actual profile.
I have adult themed discussions and not child friendly subject matter posted freely and I want to keep it that way and not just put her in a special group that only sees certain stuff.
I'm also worried about child molesters seeing her profile and trying to take advantage of her.
She lives with her paternal grandfather and I don't talk to that part of my family specifically because they are manipulative, bitter and unsupportive, and may be perfectly fine with her having this account (a few family members already added her).
What the hell should I do? I feel bad to ignore the request and keep posting public things but I am extremely uncomfortable with adding her and talking about anything. There is so much guilt involved.
Is anyone else dealing with the whole children on social media thing, and how are you handling it?
