My oldest got instagram and such at 16. She became depressed, moody, rude, and isolated. We would take the social media away, she became happy engaged, involved with friends and family.

Go right back to being depressed again as soon as she got access to Instagram.

Repeat every three or so months until she moved out. After wasting a couple years of her life she finally got off social media all together and is doing much better.

Her much younger sister is 13 wants social media. It’s a hard no. She complained to her older sister. Older sister was extremely firm on saying to stay off it.
