How do you make sure your teenagers aren't being exposed to incorrect or toxic political views online?


Teens today have so much information available to them at their finger tips. The problem is that a lot of information is wrong or even toxic. This is especially true when you are talking about politics. There is only so much you can filter as they get older. My oldest is 15 and we discuss politics but I know he also comes across somethings online and I want to make sure he is able to differentiate between false and factual information and can look pass the toxic attitudes that can present themselves. He isn't allowed to have an account on here but he does use Twitter and that's (embarrassingly) where he gets a lot of his news. He is learning how to drive and I thought that listening to the radio news stations would be a good idea but he is clearly a kid who needs to avoid any and all distractions. How can I make sure he is getting accurate and appropriate information? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2OAtLpM
