Ms Annie Sheppard:

We understand that any such legislation would be difficult to police and would require the support of the various social media platforms, but on behalf of the young people of Ireland, we need this to happen. We are all individual and unique and this should be celebrated, not hidden behind filters and clever make-up. Children born today will never know life without a mobile phone or tablet, but let us at least give them a chance to grow up in an Ireland where they can look in the mirror and love who they are.
