SNAPCHAT: THE “KID FRIENDLY” SEXTING APP?

What is Snapchat?  If you are a parent, you should be aware of this popular app that may already be on your child’s smartphone.

You can also download the app quite easily and set up an account with only an email and password.  There are no questions or age requirements.  In this blog, we are here to address three myths believed by teens about Snapchat and we’re also going to present facts for parents to debunk those myths.
