    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. It is true that you cannot legislate moral standards, but it is also true that you should not provide an environment to encourage such behaviours. TikTok is one of the impacts of the ongoing events and it is yet to be realised. I think that as much as the owners are in business, socially and proportionally we have to think of our children. Most parents cannot regulate like we can because of our abilities. Very many children are vulnerable. This thing was banned in the United States for some time because of the same crime. As much as there are advantages, we have to be conscious of the effects of these platforms. In my opinion, we may not enforce a total ban, but the parts on which we are calling for regulation must be properly regulated. There is an element of time management, which the site denies our children. In fact, children who are not supervised very well spend more time on these applications and thereafter fail their exams. Secondly, the addictive element of this app has been documented in health circles and it is a concern. We may not totally ban it, but let us put in place proper regulations to save our children. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
