Continuing to Make Instagram Safer for the Youngest Members of Our Community

Protecting young people on Instagram is important to us. Today, we’re sharing updates on new features and resources as part of our ongoing efforts keep our youngest community members safe. We’re also providing an update on our work to understand age in a way that helps keep people — especially young people — safe. We have dedicated teams focused on youth safety, and we work closely with experts to inform the features we develop.
Supporting parents and teens with new resources
We want parents to have the information to help their teens have a safe and positive experience on Instagram. In the US, we’ve collaborated with The Child Mind Institute and ConnectSafely to publish a new Parents Guide. It includes the latest safety tools and privacy settings, as well as a list of tips and conversation starters to help parents navigate discussions with their teens about their online presence. This updated Guide has launched with expert partners in other countries including Argentina, Brazil, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico and Singapore, and will continue to be rolled out in more countries soon. This also complements our existing Parents’ Guides which provide support for parents in the UK, France, Italy, Germany and Spain, and which were developed in partnership with local safety experts.
“Instagram can provide young people the opportunity to strengthen connections, practice social skills and find supportive communities. It’s important that teens and parents are equipped with information on how to manage their time on the platform so that it's thoughtful, safe and intentional. The new Parents Guide we've worked on does a great job of distilling what parents should know about how to support their teens as they navigate social media.”
Dr. Dave Anderson, Clinical Psychologist, Child Mind Institute
Improving our work to understand people's real age
We require everyone to be at least 13 to use Instagram and have asked new users to provide their age when they sign up for an account for some time.
While many people are honest about their age, we know that young people can lie about their date of birth. We want to do more to stop this from happening, but verifying people's age online is complex and something many in our industry are grappling with. To address this challenge, we’re developing new artificial intelligence and machine learning technology to help us keep teens safer and apply new age-appropriate features, like those described below.
Restricting DMs between teens and adults they don’t follow
To protect teens from unwanted contact from adults, we’re introducing a new feature that prevents adults from sending messages to people under 18 who don’t follow them. For example, when an adult tries to message a teen who doesn’t follow them, they receive a notification that DM’ing them isn’t an option. This feature relies on our work to predict peoples’ ages using machine learning technology, and the age people give us when they sign up. As we move to end-to-end encryption, we’re investing in features that protect privacy and keep people safe without accessing the content of DMs.

Prompting teens to be more cautious about interactions in DMs
In addition to preventing conversations between adults and teens who don't follow one another, we'll start using prompts — or safety notices — to encourage teens to be cautious in conversations with adults they’re already connected to.
Safety notices in DMs will notify young people when an adult who has been exhibiting potentially suspicious behavior is interacting with them in DMs. For example, if an adult is sending a large amount of friend or message requests to people under 18, we’ll use this tool to alert the recipients within their DMs and give them an option to end the conversation, or block, report, or restrict the adult. People will start seeing these in some countries this month, and we hope to have them available everywhere soon.
Larry Magid, CEO, ConnectSafely.org

Making it more difficult for adults to find and follow teens
In the coming weeks, we'll start exploring ways to make it more difficult for adults who have been exhibiting potentially suspicious behavior to interact with teens.
This may include things like restricting these adults from seeing teen accounts in 'Suggested Users', preventing them from discovering teen content in Reels or Explore, and automatically hiding their comments on public posts by teens.
Encouraging teens to make their accounts private
Having a private account offers more protections for teens as they can better control who can see and interact with their content. We’ve recently added a new step when someone under 18 signs up for an Instagram account that gives them the option to choose between a public or private account. Our aim is to encourage young people to opt for a private account by equipping them with information on what the different settings mean.
We know young people, like aspiring creators or athletes, find value in public accounts. So teens can still opt for a public account if they choose to do so after learning more about the options. If the teen doesn’t choose ‘private’ when signing up, we send them a notification later on highlighting the benefits of a private account and reminding them to check their settings.
This is just a first step. We're assessing additional measures we can take to protect young people on Instagram, including additional privacy settings. We'll have more to share in the coming months.
Will Gardner, CEO, Childnet International

We believe that everyone should have a safe and supportive experience on Instagram. These updates are a part of our ongoing efforts to protect young people, and our specialist teams will continue to invest in new interventions that further limit inappropriate interactions between adults and teens.

Is Instagram safe? How does it work? And what's a "finsta"? Everything parents need to know about this popular image-sharing app.
By Christine Elgersma | March 10, 2021
Topics: Cellphones and Devices Social Media
When you see a teen taking a selfie, chances are that picture will end up on social media. Often, that means Instagram, one of the most popular social image-sharing platforms in the world. What's all the fuss about?
Teens love Instagram for a lot of reasons, but most importantly, that's where their friends are. They can also keep tabs on their favorite celebrities, follow accounts that align with their interests, and, of course, maintain their own profile (or profiles) that present an image of themselves to their friends -- and sometimes to the world.
As with all social media, the elements that make teens love Instagram can also be breeding grounds for trouble. Depending on whom you follow or what you search for, you can find lots of mature content. And the comments on posts can be downright vicious, especially if an account is public. Then there's the pressure. Lots of kids feel that they have to maintain a perfect profile, so they're constantly scanning posts for likes and deleting ones that don't measure up. And they have to check their feeds all day (and sometimes at night) for updates from friends. Instagram also has a commercial aspect. Embedded ads, celebrity endorsements, and links to buy products are all over kids' feeds.
Still, with some guidance around settings, limits on use, and ongoing conversations about content and comments, Instagram can be a place for kids to connect and be creative. Check out our full review to get even more info.

What is Instagram?
Instagram is a popular, free social networking app that lets users post photos and videos, follow celebrities and friends, and send messages.
It's owned by Facebook but has a photo-forward format that's more appealing to teens.
How does Instagram work?
Once you create an account, you get your feed going by following friends and celebrities (Instagram helpfully suggests some for you). When you're ready to share a post, tap the plus sign and select what you want to share from your recent photos and videos. Depending on the media type you're sharing, you can choose from all sorts of filters and image-editing tools to make your post look cool. Then you add a caption and a hashtag if you wish (which categorizes all posts on the same topic together). You get the option of adding a location to your post, but it's not recommended that kids and teens use this function. Instagram offers a lot more features, too, including:
-
Direct messages (DMs). You can send direct messages to one or more people -- including people you don't follow and who don't follow you.
-
Disappearing messages. This is a Snapchat-like feature that lets you send timed photo or video messages that recipients can only view once before they disappear.
-
Stories. These are 15-second videos or slideshows that live in a circle separate from other posts. To create one, tap Your Story, tap the camera or scroll through your media, and swipe through the filters to add effects. Then select Send To to share your post on Instagram or Facebook, or with specific people or groups.
How old should kids be to use Instagram?
According to the terms of service, you have to be 13, but there's no age-verification process, so it's very easy for kids under 13 to sign up. Common Sense rates Instagram for age 15 and up because of mature content, access to strangers, marketing ploys, and data collection. Check out our social media rules for high schoolers.
What kinds of content will my kid see on Instagram?
The kinds of content kids will see mostly depends on whom they follow: If they only follow friends and don't search for anything, they may see only pictures of their friends having fun.
But kids rarely limit their feeds to people they know, so it's likely they'll see mature content (including sexy stuff, swearing, and substance use), mean or sexual comments, and hashtags about suicide, anorexia, and other concerning topics. If they follow celebrities, they'll probably also see marketing.
How can I monitor my kid's activity on Instagram?
You can ask your kid to give you a tour of their Insta. Ask them to walk you through their account, explain memes and comments, discuss friends, and share whatever comes up. Or try one of these ideas:
- Create your own Instagram account and follow your kid. You'll see what they post (unless they block you), but you won't see their DMs (direct messages).
- Follow their friends. It's not unusual for parents to be friends with their kids' friends online (but you should hold back on comments). If you're close with your kids' friends, you can follow each other and keep tabs on your kid's doings.
- Ask for your kid's Instagram username and password. Then, you can log in as them and review their accounts.
- Do spot checks. Either random or scheduled, these check-ins give you time to sit down together and go through your kid's feed.
- Install a third-party monitoring app. Parental controls such as Bark give you a lot of visibility into what kids are doing online. Learn more about parental controls.
What's the deal with "rinstas" and "finstas"?
Rinstas and finstas are additional Instagram accounts that are completely separate from each other. Finsta stands for "fake Instagram," and these accounts reflect a kid's true self and are only meant for very close friends to see. Rinsta is a kid's "real" Instagram that's public-facing and highly curated, and they project the type of ideal online persona that's hard to achieve in reality. In other words, their "real" account is the public one everyone can find and see.
Not every kid maintains more than one account, but don't be alarmed if your kid does. Instagram allows users to keep up to five accounts. As long as they follow responsible social media practices such as using privacy settings, not posting things they'll regret, and limiting their audience, finstas and rinstas can be useful tools as kids go through the natural process of figuring out their identities.
To see whether your kid has more than one account, you'll need access to their phone. Go to their profile page by tapping the person icon at the bottom of the screen. Then tap the username at the top of the screen. If they have another account, you'll see it there. Another option is to stay logged in to their account(s) on your device so you can see all their activity. While you're at it, it's a good idea to make sure your kid's account names aren't too racy or revealing. Lots of kids include their ages, personal details, or even physical characteristics in their handles, but that can make them a target for predators as well as brands.
Also, check to make sure your kid didn't create an account that's meant for a business. You'll know if the account information contains a phone number and an email address.
Is there any way to limit or restrict my kid's activity on Instagram, including connecting with strangers?
Instagram accounts are public by default, so the first thing to do is make your kid's private. To do this, go to Settings from your profile page. Select Privacy and toggle on Private Account. With a private account, only people you approve can see what you post. You get a lot of options in the Privacy section -- and you should spend some time here if you're helping your kid set up their first account. You can't lock Privacy settings, though, so be aware that kids can change them back. A few more key Instagram privacy settings:
- Comment controls. You can limit comments to followers, block comments from specific people, hide "offensive" comments, and create specific filters for words and phrases.
- Resharing to stories. You can control whether or not other people can reshare your posts.
- Photos and videos. You can prevent people from automatically adding pictures of you to your profile without your approval and hide photos and videos so they don't display in your feed.
How can my kid block or report other users on Instagram?
Tap on the three dots next to the account name. You'll see options to report, mute, or unfollow that person. Another way to minimize interactions with someone is to use the Restrict option (in the Privacy settings) to screen someone's comments without them knowing. If a person is really determined, however, it's not hard for them to create a new account and start making contact with your kid under a different name.
Unfortunately, there are no easy fixes for some of Instagram's other bullying issues. The app tries to reduce potential problems by flagging comments that sound mean-spirited before they're posted -- which may make the person being aggressive think twice.
But kids can still create "hate pages" that are designed to make fun of specific people or even imposter accounts that drag someone's reputation. You can report these types of accounts, but it can turn into a game of whack-a-mole -- and Instagram is notoriously unresponsive to reporting. Teach your kids when and how to use blocking and reporting (and make sure they know that they'll remain anonymous if they use any of Instagram's protective features). If you can't get rid of a bully, you may need more support from the school or other parents.
What should I do if it seems like my kid can't stop looking at Instagram?
All social media uses persuasive techniques to keep users engaged, and while it can help kids feel connected to friends and family -- especially during times of isolation like extended school breaks -- it's easy to get sucked in for longer periods than is healthy. If your teen has trouble logging off when they have other stuff to do or they just need a break, you can try using Instagram's Your Activity feature, which the company introduced to help people be more aware of the time they're spending on the app and to set limits for themselves.
To get to Your Activity, go to the profile page, tap the three horizontal lines, select Your Activity, and then tap Time. You'll see your daily average, and you can set a time limit and get a reminder to stop. If your kid has mastered self-regulation, Your Activity may work to curb their use. If not, you can try using the parental controls built into your phone's operating system (Screen Time on iOS or the Family Link app on Android) to block access and set time limits on all the apps on your kid's phone. A few other tricks: Adjust or turn off notifications completely to calm the need to check the phone every few minutes; and tell kids to stop scrolling once they see the "You're all caught up!" message that tells them there's no new content to see since the last time they checked.
What are some other risks associated with kids using Instagram?
Because Instagram is so image-based, kids who focus on external validation can get preoccupied with perfection, image, and status, which can negatively affect their well-being.
It's not uncommon for some users to curate their feed for public consumption by uploading only photos and videos that show them at their best and by deleting posts that don't get a certain number of likes. And with so many filters and celebrities and posts of people having fun, it can definitely affect a teen's body image and sense of self. Some people even take risks to get the perfect shot, all for Instagram. To keep up, teens may post sexy pictures or reveal too much personal information. The effects of "influencers" are real, so knowing whom your kid follows and why might give you insight into who they admire and what products that person might be pushing (note that there's often a way to buy right from the app). As with any other social media app that includes likes and follows, some teens use those as a measuring stick and compare themselves to others. If your kid's activity on the app takes a turn from connection and fun to perfection and anxiety, it's time to take a break. Using it to scroll through other people's fabulous photos for long stretches every day without using it to joke with friends or send messages can make teens feel worse than when they opened the app.
Are there any potential benefits to my kid using Instagram?
Teens who use Instagram as a way to express themselves -- for example by posting art, poetry, and videos that showcase their talents -- tend to have positive experiences with the app. When used in balance with other activities and with purpose (not just endless, mindless scrolling), kids can come away from the app feeling connected and supported.
If you decide to let your teen use Instagram, there are some steps you can take to help them get the most positives and fewest negatives. You can sit down and go through the app and its settings with them, note your concerns, lay out the expectations and potential consequences, talk through whatever controls you might use (including spot checks), and set boundaries around when, where, how, and whom they can communicate with to get off to a solid start.
Instagram: 13+ or options?
Previously, mothers almost without exception hid their baby's face behind funny stickers and brought this superstition to the level of a meme.
Now there are parents who openly bring kids to social networks from the first days and create personal children's accounts. The Sasquatch Digital agency team talked to parents who have different approaches to the Insta-question
Roman Gerashchenko, CEO of Sasquatch Digital agency, father of Fedor (7 years old)
Leads the child’s lifestyle profile from the first days — https://www.instagram.com/gastella_jr/
We ourselves never fully understood why Fedor needed his own Insta-profile even before he learned how to keep the mobile in hand.
-A personal account is not something to be earned. I created my son's Instagram almost immediately after he was born. He did not pursue any goal, except for dividing the content into mine and the child, - dad Roma simply explains his decision. - Important: our son is not an influencer and not a celebrity.
-Fyodor found out about the existence of his page at the age of 5.
At the same time, he began to post stories on his own. Moreover, the presence of an account was taken for granted! The fact that this is not quite usual, Fedor realized only a year later, when the children and adults around began to be surprised, “Wow, you have your own Instagram!”.
-Who can be interested in the life of a child other than his own parents? Everything is predictable: these are relatives, friends and acquaintances, sometimes acquaintances from the summer camp, from studies or joint trips, some accounts are often signed as part of mass following.
- Parents of friends mark him in the photo, then mutual friends subscribe to the account. Friends write comments and respond in stories, says our CEO.
- I'm running the page for the time being, but on the first request I'll give you access, with a pass in the form of an introductory lecture on SMM.
Alexander Kuleshov, owner of the Rider Kids motorcycle school, Tima’s dad (7 years old),
This dad is not a social media star, but his son is famous in the online space https://www.

But for another dad in our article, the son's Instagram plays a much more significant role. Alexander Kuleshov said that the boy's profile gained such popularity because of the rather specific content - the child of a motorcyclist. While many people are learning to ride bicycles, Tim has been racing motorcycles since he was three and a half years old.
- Even in the womb of his mother, Vika Timur was present at competitions, auto / motorcycle shows. For his first birthday, we gave him a balance bike with protection, already at 1.6 he confidently kept his balance and cut through on it. With 2.2, Tim masters mini-moto and never ceases to amaze adult viewers with his successes, - Alexander proudly shares with us. “We created an account for Tima at the age of 2.5, when we had enough material to colorfully broadcast his hobbies and achievements.”
- The niche nature of Tima's account helps him to be popular and interesting: you rarely see such a young motorcycle racer.
Few adult influencers can boast of working with brands like Motul and Honda Ukraine.
- Tim is almost 7 years old and he is crazy about motorcycles, speed and racing. Because of them, he often missed the garden and, it is possible that school. I'm ready for the day when he will take and dramatically change his interests, - the father of the racer openly admits.
Tatyana Grineva, co-Owner Fitness Geek Camp and bit.ua, Dani's mom (6 years old) — https://www.instagram.com/grinuova/
Mom often posts photos of her son at home and prepares to give him login password from the page he once created.
Tanya Grineva is also close to automotive topics, but she has a slightly different attitude to modern content.
- I clearly don't like the culture of consuming Youtube videos. I am thinking about developing comfortable, but rational rules for living in social networks together with my son. Responsibility here appears from the moment you start using it, our heroine argues.
Grineva began to broadcast in social networks a close-up photo of her son from the day of his birth without any superstitions.
– I do it whenever I feel like it, because Danya is a part of me and the reason that I am who I am. Technically, the son has had an Instagram profile since he was a couple of months old, - Tanya recalls and plans to give the adult his legal property if he finds the login / password.
Aleksey Sogomonov, CEO of the Boombox group, Nadia's dad (3 years old) - https://www.instagram.com/sogomogo/
Turned the profile of a brutal man into "Nadine's Corner" and is happy.
– Our daughter Nadia is three years and two months old. We call her "Overlord" because she almost always gets what she wants. It seems that she only lacks two things - a trampoline and a koti (kitten). We have not had time to buy a trampoline yet, and a cat is contraindicated for us, as the owner of three dogs, - Sogomonov shares touchingly and adds that Nadia still does not have her own phone.
- Of course, she doesn't have an Instagram account, but her dad's is replacing it. From a place where I posted hot rods and shooting practice, it turned into Nadya's corner, laughs the dad of "Overlord". - Moreover, the metamorphosis occurred on my initiative: I would never have thought that a 44-year-old hefty bearded and tattooed man would be overtaken by "mommy's disease." Got it and I'm happy.
But Sogomonov is not sure about what Nadya will ask him or her mother when she should start Instagram:
– A couple more years and she'll probably do it herself. It is impossible and not necessary to resist technology.
Psychologist on whether it is worth starting a profile for a child without his knowledge
Alexandra Kostyukova - gestalt therapist, expert in the field of parent-child relationships , says that we live in an era of narcissism. Its main features are narcissism and attachment to recognition from others.
- To begin with, it is worth understanding what needs parents cover when they create an account in social networks for their children? Social networks with their likes are a vivid example of emotional dependence on admiration from others. For any narcissistic parent, the child is essential to the advancement and protection of the self.
Is it healthy to "settle" a newborn in the world of social networks without his knowledge? Question. At a minimum, it violates the personal boundaries of the child. Up to a certain age, the parent is an unshakable authority, and whatever he does will be considered right. But during the period of separation, which is clearly manifested in adolescence, children may develop distrust of their parents due to the fear that any secret will be made public. And here it is important to understand that in one of the most difficult periods of growing up, the child loses reliance on mom and dad. And here, at least, feelings of loneliness, helplessness and insecurity are provided, the consequences of which may be depressive states.
Also, with the help of social networks, parents bring up hysterical demonstrative personality traits in their children who are ready to do anything just to get the attention of others. The traumas of the grown-up Little Miss America are a very clear example of this: scandals, intrigues, investigations, alcohol, drugs, vivid suicide attempts ... everything to attract the attention of others.
However, she does not call for abandoning social networks. Through them, communication with the world takes place, and money is earned. But still, the main task of any parent is to provide the child with a normal childhood: really spend time with him, communicate, make bodily contact, look lovingly eye to eye, and not through smartphone screens, give enough love and acceptance, allow him to develop autonomously, give a feeling support and security that he will carry through life.
Psychologists agree on one thing: if you create a separate profile or post a photo of your son or daughter in your profile, then the choice of content must be approached consciously and seriously.
After all, who said that a child would want his teenage classmates to see his photos with a plump ass in the future?

Baby Instagram Accounts: Opportunities or Challenges?
Hello, Igor Zuevich is in touch ✋ Surely you have seen children's Instagram accounts more than once, which are openly created by parents almost from the moment the babies are born. Or maybe even you are subscribed to a couple of well-known and popular ones - the cuteness of the touching photos and videos of the children's account rolls over, and viewing such content rarely leaves anyone indifferent.
There is even a joke about this: first, parents create an Instagram account for their child, and only then they register with the registry office😁. While the children are small, their pages are run by parents, and many of them dream of giving their grown children the “keys” to a fully functioning Instagram business in a few years.
Although the reasons for everyone may be different ...
Kira Romanova🔝Model♨️Bloger
🚀I have long wanted to talk about children's accounts on Instagram
📛By the way, the Instagram rules clearly state that it is forbidden to create accounts for those who have not reached the age of 13. Nevertheless, there are a lot of children's profiles on Instagram, and many children are not only under 13 years old, they are not even 10 years old.
⚡️Everyone who noticed the account of a child under 13 can complain, but it's better to see who the creator is - a parent or a child. Instagram will check and block such a profile if it is proved that the owner is under 13 years old.
⚡️In order for the account not to be blocked, the parent or guardian of the child can register it. And this information should be indicated in the profile.

✔️The Instagram rules even have a special section for parents.
This section explains the basic rules for registering and maintaining an account. Everything parents need to know, they can find in the section, which is called: "Tips for parents."
⚡️This is a very correct approach. After all, often it is parents who push children to create an account on Instagram. This is especially common and popular among celebrities and other "rich and famous".
⚡️So they want not only to promote their children and gather an audience for them, but also to draw additional attention to themselves. After all, in order to be popular, you need to warm up the interest of people all the time. And the more unusual the methods, the more fans the star has!

❓ Why do I need to create children's Instagram accounts?
⚡️Like any other project, there are 2 sides here:
1️⃣This is very cool
✅It is clear that if a child just communicates with friends, then there is nothing wrong with it, as well as there are no advantages and prospects .
⚡️And if you promote a child's account on Instagram, then by the age of majority the profile will grow and gather a large audience. This opens up great opportunities for young people. Of course, only with the right approach.
⚡️To some extent, it is easier to promote a children's account. After all, the child has more free time to expand the audience, gain experience and grow himself. And parents have funds that they can invest in promotion.

⚡️If you invest in the future of a child, you can create. And it's really cool! Today, teenagers aged 13-14 are already monetizing their profiles with might and main. Perhaps by the age of 18 they will understand that it is worth going to a university, or going to work in an office. And many will continue to blog on Instagram.
⚡️In any case, the child will gain his own experience, and it will be much easier for him to navigate in the choice of profession and life path.
2️⃣We cannot predict the interests of our children
✅Children who have not yet reached a conscious age will accept any suggestions from their parents as a game. But what will happen next when they grow up - no one knows. Not us, not our children.
⚡️We can only advise the child something, push him in the right direction. But our children must make decisions themselves and already at a conscious age.
⚡️Of course, the popularity of a child on Instagram amuses parental vanity. Especially if the father or mother themselves were downtrodden "nerds" in childhood.
⚡️And if all this becomes uninteresting and unimportant to your child? Why impose popularity and recognition on him? Not only that, it can break the child's psyche.

⚡️Imagine that it's fun and interesting for people to watch a 10-year-old boy grimacing in front of the camera and talking nonsense.
He's popular. But the boy grows up, becomes a young man, his hobbies change - can he continue to give the content that his fans are used to? Unknown.
⚡️If you place the accents incorrectly, then a fall from the Olympus can be very scary for the fragile psyche of a young person. This will lead to disappointment, loss of self-confidence and will put you in front of a difficult choice: “What to do next?”
😇I believe that our children should live their own lives. As parents, we can share our experience with them, suggest how to take the right steps in life, and support their choices.
⚡️But the child will choose where to move. Each person, first of all, should realize their own goals and desires, and not try to impose their unfulfilled plans on the child. Take care of yourself, achieve success in order to become an example for your children!

❗️ In this age of information technology and the Internet, it is very difficult to keep children in the dark about what Instagram is. If Sasha and Masha already have an account, then Sonya, Danya, and Artem will most likely want to register. Even if they are not yet 13.
But our task as parents is not to impose our desires and goals on children, but to teach them how to behave safely on the Internet, correctly evaluate and use the advantages of Instagram and other social networks.
As you can see, if you already know that by promoting children's accounts on Instagram, you can both provide your children with excellent opportunities and prospects for the future, and face considerable problems, then help your children navigate this big world, support them, but do not try to realize your desires and ambitions at their expense.
