Social networks have become an integral part of daily life.

While offering opportunities for education, communication and information, they also pose risks for children's physical and psychological development.

Parliament is considering legislative changes to strengthen child protection on social media.

New regulations aim to implement age verification. Children under 16 will not be allowed to create accounts on certain platforms.

Those aged 16-18 can register only with parental consent.

Residents welcome the decision. One citizen says: "I have a young child at home who can't be separated from the phone. I fully support this."

Another says: "This reduces parents' burden. The state is building a protection system."
