Posted by admin,
Parents are often worried about their kids’ social networking activities. Most of the social networks are not appropriate for their age. But, kids create profiles hiding their actual age and photo to get entries at popular social networks such as, Facebook, Twitter and many more. But, as a parent you never want them to be a part of this world until and unless they qualify a minimum age limit. According to Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) children should reach age of 13 to browse these sites.
Keeping in mind the concern of parents, we have listed some of the social networks that are ideal for younger kids:
