Prince Harry has finally given his verdict on what he believes is an appropriate age for children to be on social media.
It all came out on Hasan Minaj’s YouTube channel and was sparked by the question, “Should parents post pictures of their kids online?”
To this, Prince Harry initially responded by saying: “Parents can do whatever they want. The reality is from what I’ve learned, what I’ve seen, what I’ve heard and experienced through, especially through the parenting network, is that you have to be really worried, worried and careful about putting pictures of your kids online, especially now with this wave of unregulated AI, you don’t know where it’s going to go. It’s going to be used, but it’s also really sad.”
The host then poses the million dollar question to the Duke, asking “at what age do you think children should be allowed to participate in social media?”
“Allowed by parents or allowed by companies?” the king asks in response, before a bit of back and forth happens and the duke determines the ‘correct’ age for him.
For Prince Harry “21 is a reasonable age, but the companies won’t, they will never allow it. They will throw tens of millions of dollars to lobby against it.”
