The Parliament has adopted a law on age restriction in social networks in the third reading. This decision has sparked widespread discussion among parents.
Cybersecurity expert Mehman Isgandarov answered the most common questions from parents.
- At what age can a child be given a phone?
The expert says the key is not age but the child's responsibility. Some children are ready at 10-11, while others take longer.
- Should there be an age limit for social networks?
Mehman Isgandarov believes age limits provide protection but are not a complete solution.
- How should parental control be implemented?
The expert emphasizes: instead of secretly checking the child's phone, proper communication is essential. The child must be informed about internet risks.
- What are the signs of social media addiction?
If a child gets upset when the phone is taken away or loses interest in studies, it is a sign of addiction. Timely action is needed.
