Concerns over the impact of social media on youth are escalating, with studies indicating that 70% of people see more negative than positive effects from children's smartphone usage. Recent tragic incidents in India highlight the dangerous lengths teenagers will go for social media fame, resulting in fatalities from reckless behavior while filming stunt videos. Parents and experts are increasingly calling for stricter regulations, such as banning social media for children under 14 and limiting smartphone usage in schools, to mitigate these risks. The Surgeon General has echoed these concerns, advocating for warning labels on social media akin to those on cigarettes. Additionally, young people are expressing their struggles with addiction to platforms like TikTok, which contribute to unrealistic beauty standards and mental health issues. The need for a balanced approach to technology use among children is becoming urgent as society grapples with these challenges.
