SPECIAL REPORT: New Social Media Regulations - What you need to know
From 10 December 2025, new laws will take effect in Australia to protect young people online by restricting access to social media for those under the age of 16. This important change reflects growing community concern about the impact of early social media use on children's mental health, wellbeing and development. While regulation is a positive step forward, real safety begins at home. Families continue to play the most powerful role in helping children build confidence, resilience and awareness in the digital world.
This Special Report explains what the new laws mean in practice and offers practical guidance to help families prepare for the upcoming changes.
