Social media bans for minors are being circumvented by children, highlighting their ineffectiveness and potential risks. Instead of protecting kids, these bans may push them towards less moderated and more dangerous online spaces. A more nuanced approach to online safety is needed, focusing on parental involvement and responsible access rather than strict age restrictions.

对未成年人的社交媒体禁令正被儿童绕过，突显了其无效性和潜在风险。这些禁令不仅未能保护孩子，反而可能将他们推向更少监管和更危险的在线空间。需要一种更细致的网络安全方法，关注父母的参与和负责任的访问，而不是严格的年龄限制。
