tween and teen
airdrop
dangers teens
and tweens who have iphones can share files and images with their friends when they?re physically together using airdrop, but it may mean anyone nearby can also send them messages. a small thumbnail is always visible, even explicit photos. it can also be hard to tell who sent an unsolicited message, and strangers could eventually match your child?s face with his or her profile. talk to your mac-lovers, and change the settings to ensure that only their contacts can airdrop images to them. remind them that anything they send, via airdrop or otherwise, can become public later, so tell them to take a moment to think before sharing. proximity to green space boosts teens? mental health
