Experts believe a ban could be detrimental and may not suitably prepare children to make the right choices in future.
The experts agree that parents play a very important role in ensuring youngsters use social media responsibly.
“Shatha Almutawa, Founder and Director of Kutubna Cultural Center, agreed with Scott. "In my opinion, people thrive when they have freedom and the ability to make informed choices," she said. "Instead of creating restrictions, I think communities should encourage and support what they want to see flourish in their world."
Shatha encouraged parents to find alternative ways to engage with their children rather than resort to screen time. "We are all responsible for creating our culture to make it easy for people to turn to something other than a screen when they are lonely, bored, or anxious," she said. "We need to create the conditions for that to be possible. We want to raise our children to be responsible, thoughtful adults—we do that by giving them the tools to become responsible and thoughtful."
