Social media ban for under 16s

Kids are lucky to have social media imo just needs better educating on it etc, some things as a result from it are horrible. But that doesnt mean its all bad and should bad it completely, thats just the wrong way to go about it and pretty facked up.

I think it’s a good thing even if it saves one kid from the kind of horrific abuse they get on social media

This for example, id argue it saves more lives than it takes. Theres much more good than bad out there, lot of inspiring stuff. If a kids gonna go down the wrong path theyre gonna do that regardless in my experience.

Ban*

I think the world was a better place before social media personally.

Greed and avarice by owners of SM platforms means that we're steered towards the negative to retain engagement and illicit a reaction.

Misery makes more money.

Very little that’s useful on SM, mostly attention whhhhores and misinformation, well played Oz

Agree with it

This ban should be extended to OAPs.

Kids will still be influenced by social media. This will just stop them having an official account and allow them time to grow, adapt and gain the maturity needed to navigate social media these days.

I was around before the internet and social media and I've seen it from the start. I'd support this move. We don't need kids looking at all that racist and hateful sheet every single day. I think it does more harm than good IMO.

Good
They should ban internet porrn online dating sites & OF too
