You dont have kids, do you. Seeing them being pushed out of entire school community due to higher principles is heartbreaking to say at least, this is place from which teen suicides come from. Parents usually cave in the pressure. I would go and even claim I would ban all current social media platforms below 18. Ther are simply not enough protections, consistently, its place ripe for abuse and tons abuse is happening every day as we speak. I know we will keep our own kids off this for as long as possible, but eventually harm from absence will be greater. Parents shouldnt be choosing lesser evil like that, just that some meta employees can cash half a million and think what a great addition to mankind they are, when reality is closer to definition of cancer.

> I would ban all current social media platforms below 18 Just like porn? Do you think kids would find a way around it?

  Not if we implement mandatory ID internet use and social tracking system. We could introduce it with Elmo, Kermit, and Fozzie, and call it "Sesame Credit"… waka waka!

  some would, obviously, but only those that really wanted to, just as some end up buying cigarettes or alcohol. But that would be a fraction of what it is now

  There's a huge difference between actively seeking something vs having it shoved down your throat. The biggest problem with the social media systems is that they are normalized. Lots of school and government stuff only comes out on Xitter or Facebook. That's horrible. It's like dealing with a car salesman. If you engage, you've already lost as you have sooooo much less experience than who you are fighting against.

Parents have to get together for common rules on these kind of things. You can't push the responsibility onto somebody else.
