According to the report, following Australia’s ban on children under 16 from using social media platforms, more countries are working on similar bills to restrict the access of young people to social media without parental consent, as the support for banning children from such apps has recently been on the rise, according to reports.
The report also said that Italy, Spain, some US states, and South Korea are working on bills to restrict young people’s access to platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube. Researcher Ipsos’ “Education Monitor 2025” survey found that 71percent of global participants support banning social media use for children under the age of 14.
The report also stated that respondents from Indonesia, France, Spain, and Colombia had particularly high support rates at 87, 85, 84 and 82 percent, respectively. Some 76 percent of participants from Türkiye said they support the child social media ban, coming in 11th in a rank among other countries.
In addition to the report, some 55 percent of participants worldwide support the ban on smartphones in schools, with France leading with an 80 percent support rate, followed by Ireland with 70 percent, Spain with 69 percent, Italy with 67 percent, and Peru with 65 percent, while in Türkiye, only 53 percent of participants think smartphones should be banned in schools..
A report by the University of California, San Francisco, published in May found that, after observing around 12,000 children over three years, symptoms of depression increased among 9- to 10-year-olds as social media usage rose.
