This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

At the moment, age policies are the responsibility of social media sites.

If you would like Parliament to change the law, to make it illegal to offer social media accounts to children under 18, then you could start a petition asking for that. Or you could sign the following petition which asks for the law to be changed to make it illegal to offer social media accounts to children under 16:
