Facebook launches a new app for kids

On Monday Facebook released Messenger Kids under 13 years of age.  The app requires parental approvement before use and if two children want to be friends on Messenger Kids, that friendship has to be approved by a parent of each child. Parents are supporting this idea according to http://www.bbc.com. The prevailing mood is that since kids are using social networks, everything should be done to make sure that use is safe and monitored as much as possible.
