Pew Report – Teens, Technology and Friendships

Teens, Technology and Friendships – Video games, social media and mobile phones play an integral role in how teens meet and interact with friends: “For American teens, making friends isn’t just confined to the school yard, playing field or neighborhood – many are making new friends online. Fully 57% of teens ages 13 to 17 have made a new friend online, with 29% of teens indicating that they have made more than five new friends in online venues. Most of these friendships stay in the digital space; only 20% of all teens have met an online friend in person.”
