We should be doing everything that's possible to teach good habits to our young people. We issued a health commissioner advisory declaring unfettered access to social media by our young people a public health hazard. And We sued the five media platforms for their roles in fueling the nationwide mental health crisis among young people. The science is clear. The same way we saw the clear science with other things that are dangerous. We monitor our children's access to dangerous things. Social media is a problem. (07:14–07:24)
