      Because they don’t have enough time. we are humans, we attract to dopamine, these social medias gives our human brain dopamine, therefore we are addicted to it. Most parent won’t be able to have 24/7 care of their child because of work and school their child goes, when addictive products are so easily available while their parents are out of control of their child , humans go for it. If a parent has 24/7 control over their child, it causes rebellion which then makes it worse

      what if some of these parents come from disadvantaged backgrounds, struggling to get by, and lacking the time, education, or capacity to supervise their children's social media usage or even comprehend such concerns? (some don't even know what social media is, let alone monitor it). Are they to be condemned? There's more nuance to this and pointing fingers won't help solve the problem, and like many other systemic issues, it's not as straightforward as it might seem from a privileged point of view. Social media algorithms prioritise content based on user engagement (what we like, share, comment, click, view) which does have some benefits, but it can also result in echo chambers where users are predominantly exposed to viewpoints that reflect and reinforce their own beliefs. So for example, if you're feeling suicidal, are exposed to and get recommended others' people hopeless and depressing content while on these platforms, you're in a very vulnerable spot, especially as a teen.

      That’s why lawmakers are stepping in with this hearing. At the very least, these lawmakers are exposing how the industry works and how it can unfortunately affect young and impressionable people. Why this hearing and others are important is because as a society we should be our brother’s keepers. That’s why there are social services like foster care, food banks, etc because where people in society fall short the vulnerable should still be protected. That doesn’t give people excuse but young people, especially those who have irresponsible or very ill-informed parents, still need to be safeguarded.

It's not hard to get your kids to give you their phones and look through it once and a while. If you see people selling drugs, report it to the authorities and the social media website. Please do not try to blame social media for all problems when you haven't regulated what your child has access to.
