## Resource

Europe’s top digital watchdog is pushing for a sweeping ban on social media for kids under 13, requiring parental supervision or school-based access. With countries like Spain and Germany already exploring age limits, an EU-wide rule could reshape online youth access — inspired by Australia’s 2025 ban for under-16s. Expect formal proposals by late 2026 as the bloc seeks to shield young minds from digital risks. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
