Yes, but teens are using other platforms than Facebook:

Staking your claim on what teenagers today do today doesn't make much sense to me because teenagers get older.
Facebook just has to be the social network people end up on.
I'd at least look at college-aged people, not the weird, limited social life of high schoolers.
Facebook has expanded to new countries in the last decade which has brought these millions of users, but younger generations in countries that have had Facebook for a long time are not using it anymore.
In the US most Facebook users are between 25-34. There are barely any teenagers.

This trend is a bit less pronounced in global demographics, but I think it's clear that younger generations don't like Facebook.
