There is a significant association between social media use and depression. Recently the surgeon general of the United States called on congress to require warning labels. While warning labels are not a sure-fire way to curb use, they can be effective provided that:
- The warning must provide new information to users, and - The user must find the information credible
And parents installing this for their kids, will be a sure way to create drama for the family, or laughs from the friends.
So not sure about the value.
