Yes I would bet that too. Every reaction is encouragement to some dickheads.

Curious if this works where a woman is trying to stop a man touching her.

That’s good. I haven’t had anything though, hopefully saved by the EU.

Anyone know if this is happening outside the US and if it is whether it’s happening inside the EU?

Exactly. Some of my best friends are gamers.

All of my community groups are on there, including the school parents one. My choice is to not participate in the community or have Whatsapp… Or worse, Facebook.

Looks like it’s just trying to be controversial. The Irish are fine, they have nothing to be ashamed of and lots to be proud of. Most of the world either doesn’t know who they are or loves them.

I think you’re underestimating the normalcy bias and overestimating how much the average person outside the US understands about what’s going on there.

I get it, but if you pitched this to a movie studio they’d say it was far fetched, so the average person can be forgiven, I think.

It’s hard for people to believe this kind of crazy though.

Fun fact… The mall was invented to replace the town square that an Austrian immigrant architect missed.

I read it as A I. Moy, which may be a clue to its origin.

I’m not sure anyone can be prepared.

We gave the kids access to Spotify Kids, I think it’s ok so far.

Ok, you choose a man instead of Tina Fey to play a Sarah Palin and see how much funnier that won’t be.
- Comment on “This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.” 1 month ago:
Same as when SNL wanted men to play female politicians in sketches when Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were right there and smashed it in the end.

Probably a lot more to do with power than sex.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
If I say I do X and you say the healthier way is Y, that is a response to what I said and a judgment. If that’s not what it is, you’d need to write it differently.
Yeah the hard part is that there no real established science on this, it’s the wild west online and we’re approaching it slowly with open conversation and trust at an age appropriate level. There’s some risk but that will always be true.
It’ll only be when we look back that we’ll maybe know the right way but maybe not. Like a lot of things, it’s very context dependent… the child, the family, the village, the relationships, the school, etc etc
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
When you say things like “the healthier way is…” that’s a response to me directly and a judgment. So it’s that kind of thing.
But sure it’s fine, I’m open to the conversation, just not up for defending a decision.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
I think you’re assuming a lot from a little. I’m not explaining every thing we do around my home and my kids. I’m explaining 1 thing, it’s not everything.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
You are really telling everyone how little you know about parenting. This is what parenting looks like. You parent the kids you have with the skills and tools available. It doesn’t look the same for everyone.
You should probably sit back down.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
Yes, it’s part of set them up to succeed not fail. And another part of it is I want them to have a clean break from the outside world, from friendship drama or clinginess, from school stuff, etc. Digital switch off isn’t something people are good at doing by themselves as adults!
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
My kid has it in their schoolbag, just wears it on the way home and later if they go out. They don’t have to wear it all the time.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 3 months ago:
Yes there are a multitude of reasons, not least that filtering only does so much and constant surveillance is unrealistic.
