Macron pushes for phone bans, reading in schools

French President Emmanuel Macron has called for a major cultural shift in how teenagers interact with technology. Speaking to high school pupils, he urged them to switch off their phones and read more, pushing for one mandatory 'no screens day' per month for all students. Macron also advocated for a blanket ban on social media access for children under the age of 15. The proposals are part of a broader push to address concerns over youth screen time and digital well-being in France.
