HISD board approves joining youth mental health social media lawsuit

The amended complaint -- provided for Cypress-Fairbanks' agreement -- describes that school districts and local governments redress what they describe to be the damage caused by the way companies design, develop, operate and promote their platforms. The complaint alleges reduced attention span and capacity for critical thinking among the harms to youth. It also notes school districts investing in anxiety and depression counseling and having to address the use of platforms in class, in violation of school policy.
