For the most part yeah you’re correct.
For a 14 yr old girl, nah. There’s way more too it.

The interesting thing about all this is her parents have been pretty anonymous. I’d love to know their role in pushing this kid out there into the social media space.

Also it cracks me up the lack of parenting with this stuff. The amount of Plague Jnrs friends that have Facebook Instagram etc, let alone phones is pretty amazing (he’s 8).

When it was all going on he asked if he could be part of it but we said no, sat him down and explained why not*. He accepted it and hadn’t brought it up since.

Kids are smart, and reasonable for the most part. It’s mostly parents who are the real weak ones. Young kids don’t ‘need’ all that shit. But plenty of parents just cave because it saves a fight or makes them look like legends in the school playground.



*was also easy due to me not being on any social media platform. Saves me looking like a hypocrite. seriously Facebook users are the ****ing worst.
