Great to hear you're including youth as much as possible in the decision-making process; that will make all the difference.
And the logic behind following no one is sound. We've had our own discussions here about the level of personal connection we have through our channels. Drawing a line between the individual posting and the organization is very difficult. Our policy encourages youth to restrict our access when we friend then but they rarely do so. It's a matter of responsibility for our staff to ensure they maintain proper boundaries.
Since we don't do counselling, it's not an much of an issue in our office.
