Just to butt in with my opinion: if you’re old enough to vote and old enough to join the military you should be old enough to drink and smoke.

Before my first reply, I was actually considering what the downsides might be for illegal social media access for children. Maybe for <16 to start with a threshold. I actually believe there would be more good than bad to come of that. But then I got overwhelmed with how messy it is pick that magic age. I’m kinda torn upon reconsideration. But it’s a valuable talking point with how many teen and child lives it has destroyed.

Yeah it’s hard to set an age in stone for when the best time for children to get unfettered access to social media and the internet in general.

16 might be a good choice if you take into consideration that they’re mature enough to get a driver’s license in many states.
