Can minors have social media in Florida? What to know about new law coming Jan. 1

< 1 min read

As of Jan. 1, 2025, it will be illegal in Florida for children under 14 to have social media accounts.

Children ages 14 and 15 will be able to, but only with parental or guardian approval. Social media platforms will be required to terminate existing accounts suspected to belong to children under 14, with a 90-day window for appeals.

While the law goes into effect on the first of January, it has already been challenged on First Amendment grounds.
