Governor Mike DeWine and state officials are proposing legislation in an effort to protect the youth from the harmful effects of social media.
Candace LaRochelle is a mother of 2 that, just like many parents, got her oldest daughter a cell phone. She continuously fears the impacts social media could have on her child.
“Not only did she have to live with losing her friend, but seeing him in a position that she wouldn't want to see any of her friends,” said Mcneily. The legislation would require social media companies to create a way to tell if the user is 16 and under. If they are under-aged, they must require parental or legal guardian consent. Then the consent confirmation must be sent to the parent in writing.
A Mayo Clinic survey reported that 12 to 15-year-olds who spent more than three hours a day using social media could be at higher risk for mental health problems.
