( CNN ) -- Ask any parent one of the topics they spend the most time thinking about , worrying about , OK , obsessing about , and they are very likely to say social media . I , for one , am already freaking out about the issue , and my kids , ages 6 and 7 , are still too young to participate . What conversations do parents have with their kids about social media ? Do they talk about the risks ? How do they monitor what their kids are doing ? We focus so much on the negative , but are there positive aspects to kids spending so much of their time on social media networks ? Those were just some of the topics we covered during a lively # CNNParents Twitter chat on teens and social media that actually trended nationally for some time .
