Australia just logged out more than a million under-16 social media accounts — an unprecedented national ban aimed at protecting kids from the harms of Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and more. Today, Michael Smerconish breaks down the sweeping new law, the public reaction, and why figures like Rahm Emanuel say the U.S. should follow Australia’s lead. Michael revisits the data, insights from Dr. Jean Twenge's research on youth mental health, and today’s Smerconish.com poll question: Should America adopt the same ban?
