        "summary": "A child psychologist has suggested that children under 16 can engage in creative content creation on social media by collaborating with their parents and using the latter's accounts, in line with the new Government Regulation No. 17 of 2025 on child protection in digital systems. This approach aims to nurture children's creativity without compromising their safety, while parental supervision fosters stronger family bonds and positive development. Communications Minister Meutya Hafid emphasised the regulation's urgency in safeguarding children's privacy and data from unethical exploitation, drawing lessons from international cases.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Child and family psychologist Sani B. Hermawan, a\ngraduate of the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Indonesia,\nstated that children under the age of 16 can create creative content on\nsocial media, but they should use their parents\u2019 social media accounts\nrather than personal ones.<\/p>\n<p>He made this statement in relation to Government Regulation No.\u00a017 of\n2025 on the Protection and Governance of Electronic Systems in Child\nProtection (PP Tunas), which restricts children aged 16 and below from\ndigital platforms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy not collaborate with parents? Children can indeed collaborate\nwith parents while still being able to navigate social media and have a\nplatform, but not a personal account. This does not curtail the child\u2019s\ncreativity and enhances the child\u2019s potential through social media,\u201d\nSani said when contacted by ANTARA from Jakarta on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>With an age considered not yet emotionally mature, he said, the\npresence of parents in supervising children, playing, and being present\nfor them without social media can develop closer relationships and\nprovide higher quality time with the child.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis leads to many more effective and positive joint activities\nbetween children and parents, while also developing cognitive, social,\nand other aspects,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the Minister of Communications and Digital Affairs\n(Menkomdigi) Meutya Hafid emphasised that the presence of Government\nRegulation No.\u00a017 of 2025 on the Protection and Governance of Electronic\nSystems in Child Protection (PP Tunas) is urgent for Indonesia as it can\nsafeguard privacy while protecting children\u2019s data in the digital\nspace.<\/p>\n<p>She conveyed this based on studies and legal cases that have occurred\nin other countries where children\u2019s data and privacy in the digital\nspace have been exploited and even monetised unethically and\nirresponsibly.<\/p>",
