Mother Blames Social Media for Son's Suicide

A 15-year-old boy named Clement died by suicide in France.

His mother, Emmanuelle, thinks social media platforms like TikTok and WhatsApp are to blame.

She says the platforms showed Clement videos that encouraged suicide and didn't protect him from cyberbullying.

Emmanuelle and her husband are trying to reopen the investigation and hold these platforms accountable.

They met with the French president, who is considering a law to ban social media for kids under 15 or 16.

Other countries, like Australia, are also taking steps to protect young people from the negative effects of social media.
