He cited a chilling case where Snapchat was called a “haven for paedophiles,” urging parents to examine their own digital habits. In court, Tusla’s lawyer acknowledged internal discussions on phone restrictions. Meanwhile, a boy in care stayed up all night scrolling, ignoring calls to limit internet access — and later absconded. Another case involved a 16-year-old with body dysmorphia in a UK facility costing nearly a million euros annually, who improved after surgery. EPIC’s CEO responded, stressing that children with complex needs are falling through the cracks without proper placements and calling for early intervention and targeted therapy to prevent crises.
