MODERATORS
Is the average age of a social media user really that young? Are very young adults and legally speaking children the driving force behind the base of social media? Are even modestly older individuals not willing to try and engage with this developing type of medium?
I think a lot of older people have jobs and real-life hobbies. When you're a kid trapped in the suburbs with no neighbors to play with, you can't drive, you can't walk to anything, the idea of being terminally online is very appealing. I'm still growing out of it in my 30s
