All of them? The only restrictions my parents gave were about the amount of time I spent there and it's the same story with all my friends.

That argument is getting weaker every year. Let's assume that the parents were 18 when they had her, that means the parents were born in 1985. That makes them millennials, who probably had the internet from at least 5 years old. So they aren't some ignorant boomers who have no idea what the internet is, and they can take steps to moderate the experience.

the internet wasn't actually that available til 1994 or so, and the dot-com boom was late 90s.
