Apps if used correctly can be useful and fun. Unfortunately, kids misuse these apps and get themselves into trouble by cyberbullying, stalking, harassing others  or sending nude photos.

Below is a list of apps and social media sites popular with kids today. As a parent, you want to understand these apps, know how they work and the damage they can cause when used inappropriately.

The list of apps are only the top rated apps kids are using today. Apps are developed weekly and kids migrate to whatever app is trending within their community.
