found out daughter has a second account. friends only, i think. her main one i follow, this one i'm not on. not worried about anything specific. but i don't know whether asking to be added is reasonable parenting or the end of her trusting me with anything
a second account at 17 is usually the one for close friends. asking to follow it is a bit like asking to read the diary. i'd ask her instead what she'd do if something went wrong on it, and whether she'd come to you
I'd separate two things: whether you can see the account, and whether she knows how to handle a problem on it. When I raised privacy with my daughter, I asked her to show me her settings rather than asking to follow. She was fine with that. Following her second account would have been a different conversation, and probably not a good one.
how did you find out about it. if she doesn't know you know, sort that part out first
Keep going
