Shaquille O’Neal has been proactive on social media since his retirement. If social media was rampant during his playing days, he’d constantly be on it. In all the jokes that the basketball legend shares on his social media, he has recently shared an informational one. The Lakers legend is close to his kids and has parented six of them. He’d be the one to understand the negative effects that social media can have on a young individual.

The video entailed information on how China regulates its “Tiktok” app for children and how it might have a positive effect on the future generation. It also explains how it would affect 2-3 generations in the future, possibly costing the nation in a negative way.

There is a huge difference in how 14-year-olds consume content between China and the USA. The young US audience is treated to recreational videos whereas the young Chinese audiences are treated to content that is educational. Compared to the mandatory time limits of the Chinese version, the US version regulations are voluntary. The Chinese version has a time limit of 40 minutes per day if you are under 14 years old.

The expert in the video explained how the effects of such regulations will be seen over the next few generations. According to him, there is a huge difference in career choices between both audiences.

This explains why The Big Aristotle found the video intriguing enough to share with his millions of followers.
