Mike is joined by Nicole Jameson, Social Media Expert & Digital Strategist, following reports that children under 14 in South Australia could be banned from having social media accounts, with a review currently underway by the South Australian government.

But Ms Jameson, says blanket bans never work. “Where are the parameters?  Who’s going to manage it?   Which social media platforms come under the banner?

So many digital platforms have a ‘social’ element - even primary school programs
like Seesaw do,” she says.

“Kids are smarter than many of us in this space and can circumvent the boundaries already in place by the government and platforms, they can’t even keep under 13s off it, so I’m not sure how they’re going to police this. Instead of banning them, lets teach our kids good digital literacy and how to be good digital citizens.

Let’s promote education over restriction.”
