It probably would be a good idea to discuss this issue. Parents probably should be as up to date on new technology as their kids are. That way they are in a better position to keep their kids safe and informed! Kids are less likely to try and get away with stuff if they know that their parents aren't technologically uneducated. We shouldn't check out of situations because they are sometimes unpleasant for us. If we are engaged in our kids lives we can help them learn for themselves better.
