Why are kids hyper-connected?
Because they can be.
F.O.M.O.
Easy access.
Everyone else is doing it.
Social credibility.

Where are they?
Twitter - short msgs w/links to photos, videos, etc, teen use doubled since 2011.
Instagram - photos & videos
SnapChat - text, photos, videos with time limit, “disposable social media”
Vine - short looping videos

ask.fm - feeding ground for bullies, many anonymous profiles
Teens are self censoring on Facebook because they know their family is there.
Celebrity profiles on twitter and instagram are very appealing to teens
And many more…
