Australia Plans Social Media Ban For Children

I think we all know that sitting on Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram all day looking at what other folks are thinking, doing, saying or pretending to do or say, is bad for everyone.  We have a whole generation of kids that aren’t doing anything but spend hours scrolling through other’s posts.  Depression and anxiety have skyrocketed.  Can we do anything about it?  Probably not but Australia is at least going to start talking about it.  Satan has the world in a grip of social media and he’s destroying countless folks with this latest lure.

"I want to see kids off their devices and onto the footy fields and the swimming pools and the tennis courts. We want them to have real experiences with real people because we know that social media is causing social harm," Albanese told national broadcaster ABC News.

He did not specify the age limits for the ban but said he was "looking at the range between 14 and 16."

Albanese said he was concerned about the impacts of cyber bullying on the mental health of children and the easy exposure to content on social media that could harm them.
