There has to be a happy medium between not isolating your kids while also protecting them from what is a highly corrupting environment. Maybe this is just hindsight, but I look back at my unfiltered internet access as a kid and am pretty pissed off that my parents didn’t get more involved.
Tbh I had good filtered access as a kid but was rabid for more and private internet access, so kinda went off the deep end when I got a phone. I’m not sure what my parents could have done
Same here. When I got my first smartphone in highschool, I quickly became massively addicted. I would guess that at least half my time was spent on reddit and 4chan for many, many years.
Though I don’t blame my parents… How could they have known?
