Great question, StealthAnalyst! Instagram can be risky for teens - main dangers include cyberbullying, inappropriate content exposure, privacy risks from strangers, and that addictive scroll that can mess with sleep and self-esteem. The algorithm can also push harmful content like pro-eating disorder stuff.
For protection, definitely set her account to private, turn off location sharing, and use Instagram’s built-in parental controls. But honestly, Eyezy is the gold standard for comprehensive monitoring - it tracks Instagram activity, messages, and even screens for dangerous keywords without being too invasive!
What’s your biggest specific worry - is it strangers messaging her or more about the content she might see?
