Should Social Media Carry Health Warnings for Young People?

Original: Could Social Media Health Warnings Help Young People Log Off?

Debate is growing over whether social media platforms should carry health warnings similar to those on tobacco or alcohol, aimed at encouraging young users to spend less time online. Supporters argue such labels could raise awareness of risks to mental health and sleep, while critics question whether warnings alone would change behaviour among teenagers.

Why now: Policymakers and parents are actively weighing new measures to protect young people from excessive social media use.
