As children grow up, parents and caregivers across California face the difficult decision of how to oversee social media use. But is that decision made harder by a lack of legal protections for children in the Golden State? Marc Berkman is CEO of the California-based nonprofit Organization for Social Media Safety.

"Our main legislative focus right now is on Sammy's Law," said Berkman.
