> This is over-reach. Both in the UK and Australia 2/3 of Australians support minimum age restrictions for social media [1] and it was in-particular popular amongst parents. Putting the responsibility solely on parents shows ignorance of the complexities of how children are growing up these days. Many parents have tried to ban social media only for those children to experience ostracisation amongst their peer group leading to poorer educational and social developmental outcomes at a critical time in their live. That's why you need governments and platform owners to be heavily involved. [1] https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/article/2024/jun/... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> Putting the responsibility solely on parents shows ignorance of the complexities of how children are growing up these days. Don't have kids if you're unwilling to parent them. "It's hard! :(" is not an argument. "We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!" | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
