It wouldn't be a true solution --- Creating a platform for kids will not be a true solution. I do believe it can help; for example, the gaming company Nintendo maintains a family-friendly focus with their gaming consoles and they made family-friendly social media platforms that interacted with their games. I think that's great and healthy, but it still holds potential for abuse even with careful moderation. However, again I say this won't be a solution because of the simple fact that children and teens want to sneak into adult spaces. A good deal of them will avoid the safe spaces created for them for the simple reason they don't want safety. It's what we see on platforms like 4chan, where the "edgy" fame brings in kids and teens who want to know what it's all about.
