TL;DR Summary

The Florida Senate has passed a bill that would prohibit children under 16 from using social media, which now awaits approval from the House of Representatives and Governor Ron DeSantis. While concerns about enforcement and constitutionality persist, proponents argue that social media has detrimental effects on children's mental health, leading to cyberbullying and addiction. Opponents argue that it's the parents' responsibility to monitor their children's social media use, not the state's, and that the bill may contradict parental rights efforts.
