to answer your question, no they are not allowed on youtube, tiktok or any social media. All games with chat are enable with only their friends which i have to approve. they have youtube kids but they don't like it, so they never use it.
The other problem is that most of their friends have access so they probably show them stuff on their devices :(. Some of their friends have ZERO limits and restrictions - not sure if it's ignorance on the parents part or they are ok with it.
I heard recently denmark banned social media for anyone under 15 (i think) which i believe is a great step and i wish we do it in the US.
This is the dilemma I am facing at the moment.
ChatGPT is similar to calculator, you get answers fast, but your brain misses the training step to get better at calculations.
With calculator you are missing only one dimension/parameter of learning -> calculating things in your brain
With ChatGPT kids might lose training many other parameters -> thinking, seeking the knowledge, reasoning about cause and effect, coming up with possible next steps and so on.
You've reached the end!
