So Yarnell and the other researchers wanted to see if social media could be used for good if they partnered with people like Speer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is the world we live in. Not one where teens would be fine if only they didn&#8217;t have social media, but one where teens take to social media to get information about mental health and other issues that they can&#8217;t talk to anyone else about. Getting rid of social media for minors will leave a void similar to the one I had growing up, where no one I knew talked about abuse or mental health issues, so I assumed I was the only one dealing with it.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not a better world.
