Rejected petition: Make kids allowed on social media if your parents allow
Rejected on
I want the government to not ban phones for under 16 and make parents decide if there kids can have it and they should focus on more important things like crime and murder and work harder to stop that then stop kids have fun on their phones however they should still go outside to have fun
Well I think one of the reasons is because some parents want their kids to have good lives and not waste it on social media and go outside but if kids have a limited time they can be on their phones on social media I think it will create a lot more opportunities for kids to connect on their phones while also giving them more of a chance to go outside so parents some this if u agree and kids sign this if u want to be able to use social media and go outside and be safe online
