manysuchcases ?

a parent says her autistic four-year-old is still affected by Elsagate videos more than two months after she cut off access to YouTube. “He still obsessively repeats the strange, distorted screeching and screaming sounds heard in many videos, in deep and growly voices,” she wrote in a post. “He still cries for YouTube and has actual meltdowns over not being allowed to watch it.”

Wow, hadn't heard of that before, had to look it up. Truly disgusting what is being done to our children but I have to side with a different rationale.

Is freedom = internet access?

You should never give a child freedom to do harm to themselves or others.

I learned about sex from porn around 12yrs old. That was my first exposure to it outside of a clinical sterile description from sex ed, and my parents were too up-tight to discuss it at all.

I had to give myself "the talk" but it didn't take long to figure it out once I was curious about it.
There was plenty of good literature on the subject and I read it until I understood. Even as a pre-teen without free access to information I understood porn was fantasy sex.
Likewise, depending my partners, my use of it has been on and off and I have always been repulsed by 90+% of what is out there similar to my views on science fiction with laser and explosion noises in space... I digress.

You should never give a child freedom to do harm to themselves or others.
Give your kids the right tools for the job.

Before 12 they should never even touch a computer.
Before 10 they should never touch a gun.
Before that,
Teach them to read and write with Books and Paper.

Homeschool.

They'll be so much better off.

This is for the OP - https://www.reddit.com/r/intermittentfasting/
It's easy to take a negative stance towards others problems.
It should be equally easy to understand we have been raised in an informational blackout, without the proper tools or using the wrong tools can be harmful or fatal to the user.
Be kind.

Before 10 they should never touch a gun

No you are wrong. The other points I agree, but the gun one doesn't fly.

You likely have a good reason.....I would be interested to hear it.

Or just give em an empty gun and teach them. Its better you teach them about it than they learning it themselves or by someone else.

I said touch, not know...
Good gun safety starts with good gun knowledge.

Honestly everyone is different. Based on my experience 10 is a time in a kids life that is very important (double digits) and should be met with an equal level of responsibility.

I'm pretty sure I was playing with bb guns before 10 though so I guess I just see it as progressing from...

squirt
to
nerf
to
bb/pellet
to
22's and going to shoot "real guns" with Dad.

This is quite disturbing if true.
