TikK and Instagram for children forbid? The ayes have it
It has already been decided in Australia: a ban on social media for children and adolescents. In Germany, too, more and more politicians are calling for this – and are encouraged.
Instagram and above all Tikkok – young people hang on the smartphone for hours. The content is often disturbing. An age limit has already been decided in Australia. In this country, too, more and more politicians are in favor of this. Most recently Cem Özdemir. “We don’t just leave young people behind the wheel without a driver’s license. There are driving lessons and a gradual romp. So we have to keep it with social media,” said the green politician. Minister of Education Karin Prien (CDU) had announced that an expert commission should develop suggestions for the protection of children in the digital world.
When it comes to the Germans, it is already clear what to do. A clear majority is to access social media such as TikKOK or Instagram to ban. This was the result of a Forsa survey on behalf of the star. After that, 54 percent are ban on social media. 41 percent are against restrictions. Five percent do not comment.
The proportion of prohibition supporters among parents and the elderly is particularly high. From the people in their households Children Life, as well as the 60-year-olds, each other 60 percent. The 18 to 29 year olds are significantly less, but also the majority (51 percent). The supporters of Union (54 percent), SPD (69 percent) and Linke (57 percent) are also majority to ban Tikok and Co. for younger young people. Only the voters of the Greens (53 percent) and the AfD (49 percent) disagree.

According to an OECD study, 15-year-olds in Germany now spend almost seven hours a day in front of screens-two of them two hours per school day for amusement purposes. Tikkok, Instagram and YouTube should have a large part.
Don’t you want to miss anything from the star?
Personally, competent and entertaining: Editor -in -chief Gregor Peter Schmitz sends you the most important content from the star-Credaction and arranges what Germany talks about.
The data was made by the market and opinion research institute Forsa for the star and RTL Germany raised by phone on August 14th and 15th. Database: 1001 respondents. Statistical fault tolerance: +/- 3 percentage points. This means that the survey is representative.
