I suggest to read this report:
http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304703804579381552745011772?mod=WSJ_hp_RightTopStories&mg=reno64-wsj

The story tells the problem of facebook ads and teens.

"Who do you like?" asked recent ads on Facebook, featuring young women
in alluring poses.

Some of the ads were configured to reach young teens, who were invited
to join an app called Ilikeq that let others rate their
attractiveness, comment on their photos and say if they would like to
date them [..]


i'm very proud that i helped on this story.
