anyone with kids/young teenagers...serious
i've got 4 lads and recentley theres been a thing about instagram and i didnt realise some of the horriffic sick crap thats put on their , it really is sick , i knew 3 of my lads had instagram but didnt think twice about it because i thought it was just another way of keeping in touch with their mates , yes i know i shouldve checked it out and that is something i blame myself for , i looked on my lads phone who will be 15 in a few months and i was gobsmacked there were some things that i cant even describe they were so violent and disgusting , so what im saying is if you have got kids on mobile devices etc check and double check what they're viewing , the internet has got it's pro side but it has definatley got it's darker evil sick side , be carefull.

Social media. The route of all evil. I used to have them all until me and my ex split. The drama and headache it causes is unreal. I steer well clear of it all.
A few of my mates has got divorced because of there antics on social media.

Ive never had and never intend to have any form of social media.
This forum, insignia forum, eBay and Gumtree is the closest I'll get.
Again same reason as above....a few of my mates, work colleagues use it for getting up to no good and I've witnessed their decline because of it.

i agree with what youre saying but when it comes to young kids being able to view content like self harm , decapitations , torture etc , i cant understand why the people that run these social media sites let it happen , it should be banned , absolutley disgusting it's allowed to carry on , beyond words it really is.

I use Instagram, but I mean it seems all PG to me, but I guess if you know what you are looking for I guess it can be harmful. Luckily my 2 kids are still too young for all this yet, its hard though to restrict them, I guess that 'chat' and being brought up with proper morales and values should hopefully always prevail. But in this day and ages where people are easily infulenced from everything on TV and the net its a difficult one.

There is only one way to sort that crap... take your kids devices and install a proxy server that blocks all sorts of sick crap.
Than do the same to your router in the house...
If you don't know how to do it look it up or bring it to someone that knows how to do it.
But yeah social media has loads of crap on it. Yet they ban hard-core porn but everything else is fine... go figure

Instagram had even stricter rules than Page 3 regarding adult content...are you certain you're not referring to tumblr instead?

that's exactly it and I really cant get my head round why anyone in their right mind would even contemplate viewing some of the sicko stuff that's on there , it needs to be shut down
