In CyberSafeKids' submission and that of the Children's Rights Alliance, the matter of children under the age of 13 signing up for social media accounts was discussed. Will the representative from CyberSafeKids comment on the minimum age for children signing up for social media accounts? For example, is 13 too young? Second, does she have any thoughts on safeguarding children from being able to sign up to accounts where they are under the minimum age?
