The Economic Argument for Legislation

The TeenAegis Total Harm Cost (THC) Index quantifies what platform harm costs a family — built from peer-reviewed research and MDL litigation data. This is the economic foundation for a bill's findings section.

$179,836
Median Family Cost
Over 3 years per harmed child
$260,762
Instagram Families
Highest platform-specific median
$38,480
Lost Wages
Median caregiver productivity loss
$631,470
Worst-Case Cost
High-severity harm scenario

Six Cost Domains

Total (Median)
$179,836

The Asymmetry Argument

A family's median cost of $179,836 is 0.0006% of the EU's $1.3B fine against Meta — a fine Meta absorbed in under 15 days of Instagram revenue.

There are 1,600+ plaintiffs in the federal MDL pipeline (MDL No. 3047). Most live in states scoring D or F. Without legislation, families bear the full cost while platforms face fines that represent rounding errors on their balance sheets.

The THC Index provides the economic foundation for a bill's findings section — every dollar figure is sourced from peer-reviewed research and is designed to withstand expert cross-examination.

For AG Enforcement Packages: The THC methodology is available as an expert declaration exhibit, quantifying aggregate state-level harm for injunctive relief motions.
