| Important Social Media Advice for Parents
In terms of private use of social networking sites by a child it is generally understood that children under the age of 13 are not permitted to be registered on Facebook Instagram, Pinterest, Tumblr, Reddit, Snapchat and Secret. However the minimum age on LinkedIn is 14, on WhatsApp it is 16 and on Vine it is 17 year old. Some platforms, such as YouTube, WeChat and Kik, have a minimum age required of 18, although children aged 13-17 can signup with parental permission. A Parents Guide to Facebook
