@rob_dad_life: Sharing my thoughts on the under‑16 social media ban — still trying to get clear info on what’s actually happening. #IrelandNews #SocialMediaBan #ParentingIreland #RobDadLife
Why don’t you just not let them have smartphones until they’re 16? Why let the government parent?

as a parent myself I don't think it's the governments job it's mine my kids don't have social media don't have YouTube or anything and theyre doing just fine. next year she'll be getting her first phone at 13 even then I'll have parental controls setup

My niece took her 8 year old off social media and she is so creative so it's not all doom and gloom.

I think it should be made more focused for the age group, education and health.

My grandaughter is 15. The stuff she tells me about that comes in social media. It’s really horrific. She can openly speak about it with her parents and with me. Many kids do not or cannot. It’s not molly coddling, it’s protecting. It’s a sick dangerous world out there. Mind your children😡😡😡🥰🥰🥰

Maybe we should punish and legislate against social media companies rather than punishing children for doing nothing wrong.

And any electronic device with Internet access also. You have to be cruel to be kind.
