It is known that short-format videos are very addictive and are <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10756502\/\">proven<\/a> to lead to<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">academic procrastination among undergraduates and it also <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">poses risks to both the physical and mental health of individuals.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Online platforms invest a lot into amping up engagement, meaning they try to glue users to their screens for as long as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are policy attempts to curb children\u2019s screen time across the globe. In 2022 China maximized video games at 3 hours per day for minors, and later also limited social media screen time, and obliged platforms to heavily filter their content for child users.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hungary just introduced a law at the beginning of this academic year demanding that schools take smartphones away from pupils for the entirety of the schoolday, causing confusion about the enforcement of the new law and even firing a high school headmaster over the debate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there are more cautious attempts around: the EU has a <a href=\"https:\/\/commission.europa.eu\/strategy-and-policy\/priorities-2019-2024\/europe-fit-digital-age\/digital-services-act_en\">Digital Services Act<\/a> that demands certain protections for young users \u2013 they just opened a formal investigation against Meta, the company owning Facebook and Instagram, suspecting they don\u2019t comply with the DSA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/5650266\/social-media-girls-mental-health\/\">Some argue<\/a> that even though extended screentime <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">affects our sleep and may be responsible for the lack of exercise, and doesn\u2019t stop online bullying, the solution is not forbidding screen time, but the balanced use of social media.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But moderation is very difficult for those who are already addicted. When content sharing platforms tailor their offer directly against the wellbeing of our kids and young adults, who\u2019s responsible for them, and how can they intervene?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guests\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Fatima Ursula Kowanda-Yassin<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has been a psychosocial counsellor since 2022 and integrates nature into her counselling work and workshops through outdoor experiences and visualization work.
