I believe that the UK government should enforce a limit on social media instead of a ban, although social media can have an affect on young people's mind, the fact that few abuse the use of social media can ruin it for all.Many young people use social media as a way to connect socially with friends.

Set a limit of 2 hours for each mobile device on all social media platforms.This way young people can still have a social life within the boundaries of the government - allowing them to express themselves whilst being safer and protecting their minds.
