A few days ago the mom of a 15-year-old called to say this - 

"He follows you on Instagram and says he would like to speak to you."

Wow!! 

I have always struggled with Instagram. 

I have always felt too old for the platform and not 'cool' enough when I am there. 

I am confused about the code of conduct there. And I keep asking my daughter questions like -

"They have tagged me - now what do I do?"

"What is a repost? How does this work?"

And I then give in to her patient hand holding.

So when I hear that teenagers and young adults (who are not parents) are reading my posts on Instagram - I am over the moon with joy. 

This is the third such call that I have received in the past month.

And I have had some amazing conversations with the kids who have reached out to me. 

I can't call these conversations counselling sessions. 

I think they are more like intense chats on topics that they can't talk to anyone else about. 

I should probably call them mentoring sessions.

I enjoy them. 

And I am looking forward to doing more. 

My Instagram handle is @whatparentsask
