Debi and Krista discuss stats and trends on social media use by children and teens. Krista breaks down the very real and growing dangers for kids on the internet. Debi and Krista highlight the physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual dangers of social media for kids, especially young kids.

Krista also shares tips on what you can do to protect young children, young teens, and older teens.
