Parents of Under-16s in Australia - Social Media Ban Impact
Looking to speak to parents/teens about the under-16 social media ban - This American Life
Hi everyone. I'm an Australian podcast producer, now based in the US, where I work for This American Life.
I'm working on a story about Australia's under-16 social media restrictions, and I've been reading some of the really interesting discussion in this subreddit — including this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskAnAustralian/comments/1pyg6zm/so\_how\_is\_the\_social\_media\_ban\_going/
I'm particularly interested in what's actually happening on the ground: how the restrictions are working (or not working), what parents are seeing, and the different ways young people are getting around them — including experiences with age verification.
I'm hoping to speak with parents of under-16s, and with young people themselves through their parents.
If you'd be willing to chat, please send me a DM me here or email me at [email redacted]. I'm happy to explain more about the story and the interview process before you decide whether you'd like to participate.
Thanks!
