Florida lawmakers are back in the news but this time it's about
00:03
a bill that will limit social media access for minors.
00:06
Mhm The controversial bill is created as a response to Florida's concerns
00:10
about minors access to social media platforms and it would raise the
00:13
minimum age for social media users to 16.
00:16
Even if their parents gives them access and approval to get on
00:20
these platforms, even if their parents give them the permission,
00:23
it sounds like the law is the law no matter what your
00:26
parents says. Isn't that crazy?
00:28
So even the government has more control over the parents on this
00:31
one. That's pretty well it in Florida.
00:33
But yeah, so the Senate in the House already approved
00:36
the bill and the state hopes that it would prevent more Children
00:38
from falling victim to the addictive programming of some of these apps
00:43
I'd be addicted too sometimes.
00:44
So sometimes I just go in on a downward spiral on on
00:48
tiktok. But in addition,
00:50
over the last few years,
00:51
there has been an increase in suicide rates and cyber bullying
00:55
And so the supporters of the bill are hoping that this
00:57
kind of helps that and,
00:58
you know, lower those numbers.
01:01
social media, there's good,
01:04
it's, it's a mixed bag,
01:06
I think. And like a growing up it's like we didn't
01:09
have that. Myspace was my first lot of taste of it
01:12
It's a whole another monster now,
01:15
it's so different now.
01:19
to kind of bring more light to this,
01:22
we actually have the Sarria family which you you're gonna recognize right
01:25
away when bring them on to share their own take on
01:28
social media and going viral and stuff like that.
01:31
But let's bring them on Zamaripa family.
01:38
Thank you for having us.
01:39
Thank you girls and we appreciate it.
01:42
First of all, what are your thoughts on this band?
01:43
I feel like I understand where Florida is coming from,
01:47
but it's not fair for those kids that are actually and for
01:50
those families that are actually using the social media in the right
01:53
way. So it's kind of like a double edged sword,
01:56
you know what I mean?
01:58
how do you navigate social media with your kids?
02:01
So for example, since they have their own account,
02:04
they like to make their own videos and they'll go to my
02:06
mom and they're like,
02:08
mom, can we post this and my mom will check everything
02:11
I don't know, hold on,
02:12
take this part off or take this.
02:14
So she kind of helps us.
02:14
So we won't, you know,
02:18
and stuff like that and they're not allowed to answer any messages
02:22
They all come to me.
02:24
They have curfews, they do have curfews on their phones.
02:28
They both have parental control on their phones.
02:34
screen time. She used to have screen time for a long
02:36
time because they did not have phones.
02:40
It is our job to protect our kids.
02:43
You should be using those parental controls as it is already.
02:47
They're there for a reason.
02:49
I understand that some people aren't educated on social media.
02:52
I know because my mom,
02:56
that's my mom. You know,
02:58
if something comes up,
02:59
hey, you don't answer anything.
03:04
Like just go, she sends us videos saying like,
03:08
oh yeah, I'll be in school.
03:09
My mom's like, and it's a whole tiktok of people like
03:14
putting pills into the smarties and stuff like that.
03:18
so what kind of reaction did your family get when your,
03:21
when your video went viral?
03:23
Was it, was it all positive?
03:25
Do you also see where,
03:27
you know, like some concerns all positive.
03:30
They've been doing videos since they were in diapers.
03:34
I think she started,
03:36
she started it. They've been doing videos and I used to
03:39
have like nap chaat and everybody that knew us.
03:43
They're like, oh my God,
03:44
it says N tu oh my God,
03:46
you guys should have a show,
03:49
then Tik Tok came along,
03:51
they showed me how to use tiktok.
03:52
But then I was like a family one and then it just
03:59
went back and forth and everything was positive because everybody's like,
04:03
we always knew me and my sisters always had a mentality.
04:06
We like, we're going to get famous.
04:09
We're going to be famous on tiktok.
04:10
We can do this and then when it hit us,
04:17
For another thing? What do we do?
04:22
And even me and I'm like,
04:23
everybody, they'll send messages be like,
04:25
oh miss this and that.
04:28
I'm like, at least you guys got famous for something funny
04:30
I let everybody know me for like they have,
04:34
I feel like, oh well,
04:36
They have big personalities like definitely I was telling the Morita,
04:41
I'm like, imagine if they took social media away from you
04:45
We would have to go back to doing our dishes or we
04:52
oh my God, it's true.
05:02
So I can only say what happens here in my household.
05:08
I have my hands full with the five girls.
05:10
So this is what works for me.
05:12
The parental controls, the educating them,
05:15
the speaking to them and uno de papa a macron your policy
05:22
like la. It is like the,
05:32
oh I have to do it because now I'll get my phone
05:36
this is very sneaky.
05:39
So I know who as a parent she's like,
05:41
you know, who you need to spend more time with that
05:46
name. And before we hop off,
05:49
guys, Camila have your bangs grown back.
05:59
And now every time she complains that her BS poke out,
06:03

06:05

06:08

06:11

06:14
