Background
I believe that the social media ban in the uk is not right we should find other ways to protect under 16s banning it will effect childrens mental health and will stop them from keeping up with news. This will also stop them from talking to the friend and making online friends this social media ban will effect children education aswell this could also lead to more suicide as the children will be bored and have nothing to do wich could lead to mental health problems.
