| Sumario: | The study deals with various dimensions of social media use by kids and the role of parents. The first part of the study includes a general literature review and second part hosts the results of a survey conducted on 444 parents. Survey results indicate parents’ opinions on their kids' social media use and accordingly a number of suggestions have been made for a healthy social media use. Social media, which is undoubtedly omnipresent in all aspects of colloquial life, put more responsibility on parents given their positive and negative affects on children. The results briefly indicate that children have internet access almost everyday, they mostly use home computers to access social media, their social media diet mainly consists of Facebook and they generally start to use social media at the age of 7-9. It is possible to say that most of the parents use social media, they have social media account passwords of their kids, they think that their kids are not safe on social media and they haven't prepared any written rules for social media use at home. It is thought that the study results and relevant suggestions will be of use for parents craving for a safer internet and social media use for their children. |
