MyTeen
We are inviting parents / primary caregivers who are caring for a child aged 10-15 to take part in the MyTeen study to see if a free text-messaging programme providing positive parenting tips and information on youth mental health is helpful. All we need is an hour of your time over the course of three months to complete 3 online questionnaires. If you are interested in hearing more about the study please contact us on myteen@auckland.ac.nz or call 0800 367 6444.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
