The anonymity on Kik makes it particularly risky since it’s hard to verify who they’re actually talking to. I prefer keeping the lines of communication open rather than spying, but this is one app where I’d insist on some ground rules for their safety. It’s all about balancing their need for independence with the very real dangers of anonymous chatting.
