On one side, kids are forced by the school to be on the social media and on the other, they are banned. I wonder how this pans out.
That is like parents banning kids from using knives,
instead of teaching them how to use them safely, and then kids end up hurt.
Besides 15 is too much, 10 would be reasonable, 15 years old will have a hidden phone, thus it will promote bad relationships.
amid growing concerns about online bullying and mental health risks.
I am pretty sure that bullies will be perfectly OK sharing their posts with kids, who do not have a social account, printing it if needed.
Kids will be more stressed out not knowing, what is everyone talking or laughing about. Building a social resistance is part of a digital life.
I know so many adults being upset, that someone did not like their post, disliked it or even worse, did not react at all. I feel sorry for future kids.
I do not like 21st century, people are always either full pro or full against something, but the proper way is to find the right balance, a place between 2 extremes.
