Finsta Culture and the Double Life
Understanding why teens maintain multiple, hidden social profiles.
THE INSIGHT
Teens often use Rinstas for the public and Finstas for real friends. The pressure of the public Rinsta is a major mental health risk.
ADVICE
Encourage your child to keep their circle small and private. Remind them that even on a Finsta, screenshots can still be taken and shared with others.
