Because tanning beds are a cause of melanoma or skin cancer, the vast majority of Canadian provinces

Question:

Because tanning beds are a cause of melanoma or skin cancer, the vast majority of Canadian provinces have legislation regulating their use. One common model that the legislation follows is to require warning signs on the tanning salon premises and prohibit those who are under the age of majority (i.e., the age at which someone becomes an adult for legal purposes) from using tanning beds altogether. This ranges from 18 to 19 years of age, depending on the province. Another possible model would not outright ban underage tanning. Instead, written parental consent would be required. Should the government try to protect young people from the dangers of tanning or should the matter be left unregulated and up to the individual consumer? If you think the matter should be regulated, which model described above do you prefer and why?
