it’s funny. my kids are sweet and usually really polite. after an hour or two of unrestricted access to YouTube kids, they become unbearable selfish little fuckwads that yell and scream and kick.
so, we banned YouTube except for specific content we download and limited to 15 minutes once a week. now they’re nice sweet polite kids again.
YouTube is cancer to kids development. if you have problems with your kids, I’d recommend looking at how much screen time they get with YouTube or toxic games.

You don’t need the law to do that, you need a weekend of brushing up on router operation

I do need the law to step in and do that because my kids are influenced by other kids where parents don’t give a shit. I’ve seen plenty of kids act like little fuckheads. guess what, it’s all the kids in stable or wealthy families. all the poor kids don’t have access to those platforms outside of school.
social media and online media has been linked with so many detriments for developing children that it’s no worse than allowing kids to smoke or drink alcohol.
if parents can’t be trusted to identify the dangers and take action, regulation of the problem is merited.
