Wouldn’t it be better to teach children how to deal with that kind of technology instead of just banning it? Bans similar to drug bans will only make this go underground, allowing the social Media companies to argue there are no children on the platform.







I agree that education can’t prepare us entirely for social media or for life as a whole, but I see this proposed ban as the easy way out for the government. If social media is a toxic place for children, why and shouldn’t we try to fix it instead of just not allowing children? And if we agree that social media is toxic for children, what makes it ok for adults?
