Isolation, especially in such formative years, can develop into depression and other mental health conditions. https://humanrights.gov.au/about/news/proposed-social-media-ban-under-16s-australia https://humanrights.gov.au/about/news/opinions/after-social-media-ban-job-done-child-safety-and-wellbeing https://toolkit.lifeline.org.au/topics/loneliness/what-is-loneliness
