'In this article, I ‘trouble’ mainstream moral panics about children’s social media use. Respondents were invited to complete a survey that asks them to reflect on their use of Instagram as a form of diary-keeping. At a time when there is much negativity around young people’s use of social media, I explore how Instagram might be used by young people as a mode of cultural participation. This case study promotes a more nuanced understanding of young people’s everyday life storying and communication practices, and their relationships to certain publics or anticipated readers.'
