It’s always “think of the children” to these miserable control freaks. They’d force kids into a dungeon if they had their say in it.

Again with the clueless parents. Stop letting your children use chat apps unsupervised.

The rating here is Teen, and it tells you all over the page that you will be interacting neigh other users.
To my fellow millennial parents; remember the rules of the internet when you were young, every one still applies today. It didnt change just because a whole load of tech illiterates decided putting all their info on Facebook was a good idea.
Discord’s job is to provide reliable services, your job is to protect your kids. You think my kids can even download discord? Fuck no. Enjoy tux paint, little one.

Its because they can’t be bothered to actually rear children. An iPad is not a replacement for you singing your child to sleep, or teaching them their ABCs, or reading to them. An tablet is a short attention grabber while you are sitting in a doctor’s lobby or driving somewhere. Restrict that usage to 4 hours a day at absolute max, raise it as they age. But they also won’t become tech literate using one of these. It obfuscates too much. So its really just sad all around.

Not very long ago, just before your time
Right before the towers fell, circa '99
This was catalogs, travel blogs, a chatroom or two
We set our sights and spent our nights waiting for you
You, insatiable you
Mommy let you use her iPad, you were barely twoAnd it did all the things we designed it to do
Now, look at you, ha, look at you
You, you! Unstoppable, watchable
Your time is now, your inside’s out, honey, how you grew
And if we stick together, who knows what we’ll do?
It was always the plan to put the world in your handWelcome to the internet,

Honestly, any parent claiming their child was harmed by an online service should be brought up on charges of neglect

They want everyone to parent their kids except themselves.
