Ep 42. Age Verification, Social Media & Boundaries

In this episode of B-Rich Family Chronicles, we dive into the new age-verification requirements now active in Missouri and what they mean for families navigating the digital world. We share why we’ve intentionally avoided posting photos of our children online recently, and how their growing independence makes digital safety even more crucial. From social media being both a gift and a curse, to kids’ natural trust and vulnerability, we unpack how predators and hackers — now equipped with AI — are targeting youth and even the elderly. We ask the tough question: is social media truly safe for kids and teens, even on “child-friendly” platforms?Tune in as we share our thoughts, our boundaries, and how we plan to introduce social media in age-appropriate ways. Whether you’re a new parent or raising teens, you’ll walk away with perspectives that help you rethink digital safety and online exposure for your family.Follow & Subscribe:🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, ⁠or your favorite podcast app!!💬 Do you thinks should have access to social media?Connect with us on:📲 Instagram: @brichfamilychronicles~ Facebook: B-Rich Family Chronicles ~ TikTok: @brich.family~ X (formally Twitter): @BRichFamily 💌: [email protected]
