Kids under 16 should be banned from social media


Agree

  • Mental health crisis directly linked to it
  • Developing brains can't handle the dopamine
  • Predators have too much access
  • Missing out on real childhood experiences
  • Algorithm exploitation is child abuse

Disagree

  • Digital literacy requires early exposure
  • Parents should decide, not government
  • They'll just find workarounds anyway
  • Isolates them from peer social life
  • Problem is usage, not access itself
