Facebook Wants to Hook Your Kids on Messenger
Though YouTube finds itself embroiled in numerous controversies surrounding children, Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) has apparently decided that now would be a good time to roll out a brand-new product geared toward kids: a new Messenger Kids app. It's a version of the social network's popular messaging service that includes numerous parental controls and safeguards that hopes to connect kids to friends and family. Facebook says the app was co-developed with parents, kids, and "expert advisors" who specialize in child development, online safety, and children's media.
A parent sets up the child's Messenger Kids account and has parental controls available through their Facebook account. Parents can see who is approved to communicate with their children and when those contacts are online. Messenger Kids will expectedly feature the same types of emojis, stickers, and photo/video filters that have proliferated all messaging services, with the exception that the library of content is being specifically selected as kid-appropriate.
