Around 5.7 million children under the age of 11 have accounts on different social media apps including Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram; this is not a good situation because: there are many inappropriate posts, these apps also affect their mental health and change their emotions in a very harmful way. Sign this petition to stop this problem, after all only YOU can help.

The tech giants are ignoring the damage they inflict on children while they bank their profits. I am putting together a dossier of the stories you shared to shove in the faces of these executives. They think this will blow over but we are just getting started.
