Original: Social media bans don’t protect young people’s mental health, early research shows
Early research indicates that banning social media does not protect young people's mental health, challenging a policy approach gaining traction among lawmakers in several countries. The findings suggest that restrictions on platforms alone may not improve youth wellbeing, complicating debates over how best to address concerns about social media's effects on adolescents.
Why now: Governments are actively debating or implementing youth social media restrictions, and this research challenges the premise behind those bans.
