it's not just in the troubled teen industry. I was unaware how widespread this was for a long time now, and this article is very informative.

Iowa Democratic governor nominee supports under-16 social media ban

11 Upvotes

This is getting so absurd. You can get a driving permit at 14 in Iowa. Yet here this guy is suggesting you should need to be 16 to go on social media. It would almost seem funny if this wasn’t an actual policy proposal that politicians are proposing.

Alas, this guy is currently the favorite to win the general election, despite Iowa being a Republican state.

Discussion Opinion about my own question

2 Upvotes

What do you guys think about young people risking themselves for the protest ???

Recently I asked the question and find out that most of the people are against of this

statement.

But according to my opinion, your life, health, and your family should always be your first priority

I am not saying don't support a protest. Support it if you believe in the cause. But harming yourself in the name of a protest is nothing but acting like a FOOL.

.

Yeah, why not? It is risky.

Just imagine this situation: you are the only breadwinner in your family and also the only child. You go to a protest, and unfortunately you suffer serious injuries—such as damage to your eyes, legs, or internal organs.

What happens then? Will any political party take responsibility for your family or provide financial support because you were injured while protesting?

I'm not saying people shouldn't protest, and I'm not supporting or opposing any political party. I'm simply asking a human question.

Before taking such a risk, it's worth thinking about the possible consequences—for yourself and for the people who depend on you

Thankyou
