Closed petition Ban social media for under 16s

Social media has a disproportionately negative impact on young people, inc online bullying, self-image issues, grooming & access to violent & abusive sexual imagery, self-harm & suicide propaganda. No parent would allow their child exposure to these in real life.
We need the government's help.
