Ellen Roome- A Voice for Change in Children’s Social Media Rights
Manage episode 470581467 series 3646580
TRIGGER WARNING- VIEWERS DISCRETION ADVISED
In today’s episode of The Magical Mindset Podcast with Cliff Sewell I am joined by social media- law changing campaigner Ellen Roome.
Ellens journey as a campaigner began with an unthinkable tragedy—the loss of her only child, Jools Sweeney, who died in April 2022, at just 14 years old. The coroner could not definitively rule Jools’ death as suicide even though he took his own life, leaving Ellen and her family searching for answers.
Ellen discuss’ that the key to understanding Jools’ state of mind and whether perhaps it was an online challenge that went wrong may lie within his social media footprint. Ellen further explains a significant and devastating barrier: as parents, they have no legal right to access Jools’ social media data, even though he was a minor.
Now devoting her life to pushing for legislative change, Ellen spearheads “Jools’ Law,” a campaign advocating for parental access to the digital accounts of deceased minors. Her efforts have garnered widespread support, and the law is currently being discussed in Parliament.
Ellen’s work is a testament to her resilience and love for her son, ensuring Jools’ legacy makes a lasting impact.
