Denmark Proposes Ban on Social Media for Under-15s

Denmark wants to create a rule like a digital curfew for kids.

They are proposing that children under 15 shouldn't be allowed to use social media apps like TikTok or Instagram.

This is because grown-ups are worried that seeing too much online stuff, like scary pictures or things that make them feel bad, is not good for children.

They also worry that kids spend too much time looking at screens.

However, if a child is 13 or 14, their parents might be able to give them special permission to use social media after checking things carefully.

This rule is like one Australia is already making.

The government wants to make sure this new rule is strong and doesn't have any sneaky ways around it, even though it will take some time to put into practice.
