When the parents of French children between the ages of 8 and 17 were asked about the average age they though that children opened their first social media account in 2020, their opinion differed according to the age of the children they had. For example, parents of children between the ages of 10 to 14, expressed that the average age lied at around 13.4 years. The younger the children are, the younger the parents' opinion on the average age of their children's profile creation on social networks.
