Where their friends are, then make sure they have good friends. I'd let them pick any network, with the caveat that parents are friended. And the understanding that I have full access to their phone at any time, although I've never once actually looked at it. Assume that anything you forbid, he can easily access and keep secret from you; and the more you forbid, the more he'll feel justified in doing so. If they're younger, I'd suggest social-networks-light, through games with social aspects, like Roblox, among us, and Minecraft. To answer your other question... I'd most want to steer my kid away from the mind-rotting effects of Twitter. But I wouldn't forbid it, just make sure that they understand my contempt. Every time.
