Social Media Ban for Under 16s
Parents across Australia know all too well the growing threats and misuse of social media. Our children are more vulnerable than ever to grooming, manipulation, and exposure to harmful content.
In response, the Federal Government has announced a ban on social media for Australians under 16, set to take effect from 10 December 2025 — part of a broader effort to protect children from the increasing risks and pressures of the digital world.
As a parent, I understand the challenges and constant vigilance required to keep our children safe online. But questions remain:
- How will this ban be enforced?
- Will it truly deliver the protections families are hoping for?
I want to hear from you — do you have concerns about the upcoming changes?
