    This is all silly. Just make parents feel responsible for their children. Settle with social media companies to start a joint fund that pays for PSAs about safe social media use on kids tv shows and stuff. The tobacco and alcohol industries have to do it, so why not social media? Though we will end up with an unstoppable 15 second ad before every YouTube video about not sharing personal info in the comments or DMs.
