Teens ages 14-17, also known as young millennials, are slowly starting to abandon their Facebook accounts and are moving onto more private social media networking circles. In a recent study, MTV surveyed teens in this age bracket about how they stay in contact with their friends. Facebook and even texting aren’t high on the list.
