Do not ban social media for under 16s
I think the government shouldn’t ban social media for under 16s. This is because for many young people social media is how they communicate with their friends. Some people view social media as a lifeline. A community, a supportive network. This is why I think the government shouldn’t ban it.
Government ban on social media to be for under 13s only
Any government ban on social media that is introduced should be for under 13s only. We want people 13+ to be able to use social media. Not just 16+, as we believe 13 is reasonable as you are officially a teen and responsible for yourself.
Consult Young People on Social Media Ban
Young people who use social media daily should be consulted before any social media ban is introduced. Decisions affecting their lives are being made without their input.
Ban images and videos of children under 13 being shared online
Young children cannot consent to their image being shared. Yet parents sometimes share images of their children, building their digital footprint. This could make them vulnerable to abuse.
Review laws preventing under 18s from access to online sexual content
We ask the Government to review laws that prevent under 18s from accessing sexual content online. We want the review to look into focusing instead on improving and implementing mandatory sex and relationships education for all students.
