US Elections (& Politics) :)

Kids needs to be protected...truthfully I don't care by what means, they just need protection. They are sponges. We have family that let their kids be glued to their iPads. I have seen some of the stuff/crap our grandson has been watching, Evil is very prevalent on all those "Kids" channels. Alot of Woke crap on there. Parents are blind these days. Look at how many were woke up during Covid when they had to stay home and do school online. It sparked a HUGE push for home schooling. Majority of the stuff on Social Media is crap. It is getting worse each day with AI crap out there.
How do you stop Covid? Turn off your TV. This is the same with Social Media. Unplug...

Guess crap is my word of the day, haha

This is not like blaming a gun for someone shooting someone. I get it, what restrictions will be used? What new laws/regulations/etc.?

One of the best things that happened in Texas recently is the ban of cell phones in classrooms. Why do you think they were banned? Are cell phones bad?

Again, by any means, parents need to get a hold of this major issue, FAST...

One of the best things I/we love moving out in the country is, NO, I mean NO cell phones/iPads/game devices/etc. are in the hands of Any kids in any of the local restaurants we have been to. Wow, the kids sit there politely and interact with their parents, they say hi to us and others. It is like the Twilight Zone here. I am sure they are made to sit at the table at home for meals like we had to as kids. They say Yes Sir, No Ma'am.

So what is different with these kids? Yes parents who actually love their kids by restricting the very things that harm them.

Thanks for making my argument for me ;)

Its not the communication method, its the values and the ability to separate right from wrong instilled in the kid

Before mass communication we had plenty of opportunities to hear stuff from other kids in the schoolyard that didn't agree with what we had been raised to be acceptable or right.
Some kids joined in with the "bad" activity and some didn't.

Its no different now.

The difference is in the values and judgement with which the kid is raised.
I think his point is that parents have relegated the internet to teach values and judgement and in fact most parents have abandoned their duties to allow the gubermint schools to indoctrinate the kids. There should be a license required to breed because the breeders lack values and good judgement with a significant number of them.

Kids see the social media garbage like the breeder who says if she doesn't get her food stamps she'll loot the stores. Kids normalize that as an acceptable response.
