“If we let him…”: the daily battle of parents to limit access to social networks for their children

It’s a fight that parents didn’t have to fight until a few years ago. But today, the use of screens and social networks is necessarily subject to discussion and, in certain cases, to decision. And a change seems to be observed in this matter, among some at least. According to the annual “Born Social” barometer, carried out by the Heaven agency and published by Le Figaro this Thursday, the use of social networks is down 15 points in one year among 11-12 year olds, even though their access to smartphones has not decreased. This figure has never fallen since the creation of this barometer eight years ago.
