As if it wasn’t bad enough already

Knowing how much anxiety I had about outsider perception when I was young and didn’t have social media, I can’t even imagine how tough it is for teens today. Where is the safe space? At least when I was young, when I went home, I was safe. Nobody was looking at me or judging me or criticizing me. But kids don’t get that today because they bring all of that judgment upon themselves by posting and updating, all day long.
