No, they shouldn't. Social media companies should be made publishers and so responsible, legally for what is on their platforms. Is it really a coincidence that the world has gone to shit since the rise of unsocial media. We lived without it before and could do so again if need be.
Missed it , fooking work , my lads school has banned phones, works OK , they can have them, just don't use them. I'll have a listen and shout at my phone happy days
I heard that awful Glaswegian guy on your show this week talking absolute nonsense. As a Glaswegian he sounded like a typical Rangers supporting unionist, I’m sorry you had to deal with his ignorant ass.
Yes, it’s a distraction and it doesn’t help… social media should also be restricted for under 16..Aus has taken steps towards this however atm meta and google are making the president put tariffs on Aus because of this… bullying for protecting our youth
In the States the fear of a mass shooter in schools or frankly anywhere really limits my ability to not allow my child to have a phone and to fight the school regarding allow them to have a access to the phone.
It would seem a reasonable and common sense approach would be to ban smart phones. Allow old dumb phones that have no texting ability, no internet, no social media apps. Just the ability to make a phone call in an emergency
How is a reasonable solution putting my head in the sand? What is the objection to allowing kids a way to stay in touch during an emergency while also cracking down on the distractions phones create

I leave that one not in translation to Furtle. Ol
Does all this turmoil affect the rest of your day?
That being said. In the U.S. kids need to keep their cell phones in case of a school shooting... that is how bad it is...
