Life before social media

Do kids today need social media to ride bikes and go fishing? I think social media is geared more for trends. That’s why I mentioned going to the mall.

Riding motorcycles!

I don’t see them doing it… seem to all be on social media/games… which is the point of the thread.

Kids still ride bikes and go fishing. At least in my neighborhood. What they don’t do and has nothing to do with social media is shoot BB guns or get out by themselves. These are kids not adults or high schoolers. Do middle schoolers use social media?

No clue… I don’t have kids so I’m not really qualified to comment on it…

I also only use facebook…

Here’s one… you used to only see former classmates at high school reunions if they weren’t actual friends…

I have an 11 year old. No social media. His school discourages social media and heck even phones till high school. He’s not a stay at home zombie. Heck my life revolves around his busy schedule!
