Kate Winslet: Parents feel powerless over children's social media use

The government should make social media firms enforce age limits to help tackle their impact on children's mental health, actress Kate Winslet has said.

Winslet said security checks could be more rigorous and those in power"should step up" to protect children.The feature-length drama sees Winslet playing opposite her real-life daughter Mia Threapleton as the mother of a teenager whose mental health begins to suffer as she becomes increasingly consumed by the pressures of social media.

In the two-hour drama shown on Channel 4 on Thursday 8 December, Winslet plays Ruth, a single mother of two, including 17-year-old Freya. The world of social media is"frightening to parents because we don't really know what's there", Winslet said.
