ARE YOUR SIBLINGS READY FOR SOCIAL MEDIA?

I feel like my younger sibling is ready for social media as he is well matured and has an older brother to guide him through the stuff he does. My younger sibling is not perfect and from time to time he makes bad decisions but if it’s ever something he may second guess to post he will come to me.

DOES PERSONALITY MATTER?
I would want the one that has friends and is very social to go on social media in order to promote her sports and express her confidence on social media and food the other one that is depressed i wouldn't want her on social media .

DOES PERSONALITY MATTER?

I don’t believe my younger siblings are ready for social media because I want them to be protected from sending videos, pictures, and sharing files online and you never know how people would add when my brother's face appears on their screens.
