Almost everyone has it. I do not want to use WhatsApp, but in The Netherlands it is nearly impossible to go without it (although it seems you do ;)). E.g. the parents of our daughter's class uses a WhatsApp group. You can decide not to join it, but you will miss out on all kinds of activities people plan together for kids, school-related messages, etc. Similarly, our larger family uses a WhatsApp group to stay in touch, coordinate our the bi-yearly family outing, etc. And this goes on and on, basically everyone communicates through WhatsApp groups. If you do not join them, you miss out on a lot of social activities, etc. I wish WhatsApp just stayed independent and charged $1 per year, which they did irregularly before they were bought by Facebook.
