Denmark to Ban Social Media for Under-15s

Denmark wants to stop young kids from using social media. The government says children under 15 should not use these apps. Parents can let their kids aged 13 and 14 use some apps if they say it's okay.

The Prime Minister of Denmark thinks social media can be bad for children's mental health. She wants to protect kids. The minister in charge of digital things says social media takes away children's time and happiness.

Many people in the government agree with this plan. They will vote on it soon. In Denmark, kids use apps like Snapchat, YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok a lot. Danish kids spend about 2 hours and 40 minutes on social media every day. Other countries, like Australia, have also made rules to protect kids from social media.
