Shadow Communications Minister David Coleman has been campaigning for age verification to be used online for some time, and wants it to cover basic access to social media.
"There's no question that social media is damaging for the mental health of children," Mr Coleman said.
"There is ample evidence to show that we need, as a society, to take strong action on this issue, and that is about verifying age and saying if a child is too young to be safely on social media, they shouldn't be there.
"Tragically, there's no doubt that thousands of children in Australia have seen extremely disturbing images on social media in the last two weeks, and we've got to stop that."

will "parental approval" for a child to access SM make a difference?

a kid says to parents "I promise I'll be good and won't read anything salacious" (words to that effect). but without SM acting to block sexual or violent, misogynist, racist or other negative seductive material, kids will continue to be exposed to poor quality stuff anyway.

a) is parental authority necessary?
b) is such possible to make faceb or twitx child "safe""
c) how to get all SM sources to agree when its been impossible so far to get them to agree to take down deplorable material.

absolutely nothing to do with the young walking away from the Liberals and considering that conservatives are dinosaurs
