A 2018 Pew Research Center report found that 95% of teens have access to a smartphone and 45% of teens say they are online almost constantly. While parents work to raise children in this digital age, they have a lot to be concerned about: online bullying or harassment, social development, mental stimulation, and privacy and safety.
