41 states sue Meta, claiming Instagram, Facebook are addictive, harm kids

I wonder why these states are passing the blame onto social media companies, and not looking at their own policies that allow their school districts to use these platforms as a primary communication tool for students and parents. My kids school uses instagram to notify students for updates on making athletic teams or other important school activities that require an account on those same platforms. Are they not in turn encouraging that addictive behavior? I’ve spent countless hours trying to keep my kids off those platforms only to be met with schools that practically force parents to give their kids access so they can receive those communications. My kids school website still has fb and insta in its mast head…sigh.
