Come along with me to the learn about social media Come along with me to the learn about social media safety for teens at the @instagram Screen Smart Event! 📲✨

Instagram is making it easier for parents to feel confident about their teens’ online experiences with Teen Accounts. The Teen Accounts have built-in protections that limit who can contact them, what content they see, and how they spend their time.

Parents, set the right boundaries for your family with: 
✅ Automatic safety settings
🎬 PG-13 guidance for content 
🌙 Sleep Mode + other screen time tools
🤝 Parental approval for changes
💡 Parent-to-Parent Tip: Keep the conversation open. Ask your teen what they’re seeing online, connection and curiosity go a long way!

Online safety is so important to me as a mom. I am happy to partner with @instagram & @meta to help share this info with other parents! Learn more about Instagram’s family tools at Meta’s Family Center- familycenter.meta.com
