Early exposure of children to online communities has both significant positive and negative aspects. On a positive note, online communities can help children get exposure to support, allowing them to explore their interests and identities in a diverse and expansive environment. These online communities or platforms can give them more opportunities for self-expression, creativity, and the development of digital literacy skills. They can connect with peers who have similar interests, fostering social connections that were limited offline.

On the other side, they may have notable risk factors to be concerned about. They may have been exposed to cyberbullying, inappropriate content, and harmful behavior. And this can negatively affect self-esteem and emotional well-being. The nature of social media can sometimes create unrealistic standards, leading to issues like anxiety, depression, and more related mental issues at such a young age. They might not be able to distinguish between online personas and real-life identities, complicating their understanding of themselves.

To have safe exposure to online communities, children should be properly guided and assisted with elderly support. And they should balance online interactions with offline activities and parental guidance. Also, fostering critical thinking is crucial to ensuring children develop a healthy and well-rounded sense of identity in the digital age.
