The correct solution is to ensure the social media companies employ safeguards. It can’t be that difficult.

Richard, did you go to a State school? Remember the playground?

It's been discussed previously as to why leaving it to parental responsibility doesn't work.
Critics agree with your point about making social media companies responsible for safety instead of this ban. The trouble with this is that they tend to be located abroard and put profits before anything else & Ofcom would face the same issues when trying to enforce our laws onto them as they have found when trying to enforce over 18 legislation for porn sites thus far, if they don't comply.
