Hey I have a crazy idea.Why dont we make parents responsible for teaching their kids between right and wrong .My parents said dont smoke and do drugs and they watched me and my siblings.Now we blame everyone but ourselves.There are alot of bad people on the internet and parents should be teaching their kids to trust no one .How about putting a time limit on how long they stay on the internet.That means doing extra work and being involved in your kids lives.If one of my kids buys drugs and dies from an overdose in newYork city .Should I go after Kathy Hocul cause she doesnt make the streets safe?I guess thats what parents want when they dont do their job in this country .Thats why the future is bleek and you have teens running rampant in the malls and stealing stuff because you have no parental guidance.

I'm sorry but blaming social media companies for other people misbehavior is like blaming a car manufacturer because someone decided to drink and drive. Lets look in the place where most behavioral issues begin, at home, with the parents. My parents were strict and taught me respect. Be respectful but not soft. A time when a simple spanking wasn't considered child abuse but discipline.

[@alexanderjones7196]

honestly I agree if kids are getting fooled and addicted to social media its more of the parents fault. They accept the risk of letting their child going online and when something happens they complain. that's like getting in a car crash due to another driver then blaming the car manufacturer for the accident. It may not sound nice but its just hypocracy if the government chooses to target a specific industry like this.(I'm not saying that zuckerburg and meta is innocent but manipulating this for political gain is different).
