. is a smart and intelligent kid that has put in a whole lot of effort into her tech career. Because she’s a minor doesn’t give those sick people in her dm or any future ones to exploit her or troll her. Cause I don’t just understand.

As a young adult, I think that the biggest challenge is in shutting out the noise. Very often, we measure our success by what others have accomplished. It’s so easy to get distracted by peers who are seemingly doing amazing - meanwhile, we’re not even on the same path with them.
