Answer:
The main reasons for not monitoring your teens social media activities are privacy and trust. Kids don't want their parents looking through personal information, texts, and social media posts. Many kids consider their smartphones sacred property not to be viewed by their parents.
They may lose trust in their parents if social media activities are monitored or taken away. To counteract these concerns, it’s important to explain why their behavior is being monitored and the possible dangerous effects of relationships/communications online.
