In Australia
from 10 December
social media firms – including Meta
TikTok and YouTube – must ensure under-16s do not have accounts on their platforms. Jess Asato
the MP for Lowestoft
Suffolk
said children in the UK were being exposed to harmful content online
and she wants to see a similar ban in place. The Department for Science
Innovation and Technology said it had introduced laws to ensure online content was "genuinely age appropriate".

New measures came into force in the UK in July as part of the Online Safety Act
meaning online and social media companies are now legally responsible for keeping children and young people safe online. But Asato has called for the age of online consent to be raised from 13 to 16. "Children deserve to have the best start in life
and that means growing up away from social media
she said. We've got to ask 'Is it a coincidence that as children's lives have moved more online
children's mental health has suffered?'" She added that the impact could be seen in fewer children regularly playing outside and fewer saying they enjoy reading. "We wouldn't buy toys for our children that didn't have some regulation
Asato told BBC Radio Suffolk's Wayne Bavin. Years ago
there used to be toys made of lead. We found out that was bad for children and they were removed. "But the same doesn't happen for social media products because it's the Wild West." Asato said she feared that "we're raising a lost generation". Image source

Jess Asato said there was a "lost generation" being harmed by social media. A spokesperson for the Department for Science
Innovation and Technology said it understood parents' concerns around social media. "That's why we've taken some of the boldest steps anywhere in the world by introducing laws to ensure that online content is genuinely age appropriate
they said. It is important that we strike the right balance: protecting children while ensuring they can safely benefit from the digital world without risking isolation or cutting off access to vital services
especially to the most vulnerable." BBC Radio Suffolk heard from some children that
instead of banning social media
better safeguarding should be brought in. Joshua

said he spent about two hours a day on social media apps
mostly talking to friends. "I think the problem is parents
guardians and carers can't control it because they don't know much about it
because it was never around when they were younger
he said. I feel like banning all under-16s is a shock reaction to what's going on
and I think they should work on some of the systems of stopping some things being put on platforms that shouldn't be." Paige

said she spent about three hours a day on her phone. "I think putting safeguards in place would be a better way of dealing with things
because I think a lot of things on social media shouldn't be there
especially for the younger eye
she said. Get in touch. Do you have a story suggestion for Suffolk?
