No comments from kids. Mixed reactions from parents.
Based solely on parent feedback from the article it seems like this will most positively affect kids who enter preteen years after the ban and who never had access to social media before. Kids who got used to it and now lost access seem to be a mixed bag. Obviously no one actually knows effects on long term outcomes yet. I would have really liked to see what the kids themselves are saying.

Self-reported behavior among teenagers is... inaccurate at best.
