Updated on: July 31, 2026 / 12:41 PM EDT / CBS News Add CBS News on Google The families of four teenagers who died by suicide are suing Meta, Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube, alleging that using the social media platforms led to severe mental health and physical issues that resulted in their deaths. The lawsuit, filed Thursday in the Superior Court of Delaware, claims that the teens suffered years of harm from using the platforms, including social media addiction, severe sleep deprivation, depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation. The Social Media Victims Law Center, a legal advocacy firm, filed the complaint on behalf of the four families, who are from Minnesota, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas. The children, who died between July 2024 and September 2025, were ages 13, 14, 17 and 18 at the time of their deaths, according to the firm. "Despite living hundreds of miles apart, their parents describe nearly identical patterns: once‑vibrant children who became anxious, withdrawn or depressed as their use of Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube intensified," the Social Media Victims Law Center said in a statement shared with CBS News. Social media companies' "actions have eroded public trust, misled policymakers, and created a

By KAITLYN HUAMANI and BARBARA ORTUTAY, AP Technology Writers The families of four teenagers who died by suicide are suing Meta, TikTok, Snapchat and YouTube over what they describe as “years of escalating harms” from using their platforms that eventually resulted in their deaths. The lawsuit, filed Thursday in the Superior Court of Delaware, is the latest in a flurry of suits filed against the social media giants that alleges their platforms are addictive and dangerous. The complaint was filed on behalf of four families from Texas, North Carolina, Minnesota and Tennessee whose children died over a 14-month period starting in July 2024 through September 2025. The Social Media Victims Law Center is bringing the suit on behalf of the families, and its founding attorney, Matthew Bergman, said it’s “particularly salient” that the children in this case died “long after” similar suits had been filed. “These platforms continue to kill kids, despite the platitudes of their executives,” Bergman said in an interview.  » Read More

Stock photo Violence broke out at Windsor Secondary School yesterday (July 29) as a mob of learners attacked one particular child shortly after the school day ended. A video of the chaos erupting outside the school grounds has gone viral on social media. In the video, a parent can be seen trying to protect her child from the mob. People are warned that the sharing of a video involving minors in any capacity, without the consent of their legal guardians, could constitute a criminal offence. WhatsApp channels the cause of the violence? According to information received by the Ladysmith Gazette, the incident is believed to be linked to WhatsApp channels involving different high schools in Ladysmith, where learners are allegedly insulted and subjected to offensive comments. Accused learner attacked A pupil, whose identity has been withheld for safety reasons, told the Ladysmith Gazette that the child who was attacked had been accused by others of creating the controversial WhatsApp channel at Windsor Secondary School. “Learners are now being accused of starting these channels, including those at other schools. These channels are used to insult and humiliate learners at different high schools. One of the accused was attacked outside (Windsor) school,”

There’s nothing more humbling than walking into a nightclub and realising that you are your friends are the oldest people in the crowd. It seems ridiculous to say it that at 22, but 18-year-olds genuinely view us as ancient monuments. They’ll say hurtful things like: “Wait…no way, you don’t look 22”, and smile like they’ve just made the OAP on the dancefloor feel better about herself. I get it, I used to look at people who had finished college as these fully formed beings, so mature and world-wise. I can confirm, being at this stage of life is not as glamorous as I had pictured it being, as a gentle teen. It’s less martinis and contributing to your pension, more struggling to keep tabs on which country each of your friends is moving to. I often think that I am no different than a teen, and then I talk to one and realise how desperately uncool I have become over the years. The disjunction is glaring when I walk into the wrong nightclub, yes. But nothing will make me feel my age as much as my relationship with social media. I am now at an age where it feels wrong
