Children and social media – level 1 - News in Levels

 

Kara Swisher is a journalist. She is interested in the tech world. She writes a book called ‘Burn Book: A Tech Love Story’. It talks about tech. It is a bestseller.

Swisher has four children. She thinks that children should not have social media. If yes, their parents must agree. Social media is like cigarettes. Once you have it, you cannot stop using it. It is not good for children. It has an impact on their mental health. Young girls have many problems with it.

The government must make rules about social media. Swisher also talks about TikTok. Some people want to stop it in the US. There must be strict rules about foreign companies in the US.
