The old bulletins of the pre2000s. ASCII art every where.

I disagree with the prefrontal cortex being entirely at fault as there are kids out there that are entirely capable of avoiding dumb stuff and do take warnings. There are also adults entirely capable of doing exactly the same shit while having a prefrontal cortex entirely developed.

We only take notice of the ones who don’t because they are the ones who make the news cycle and click baits such as this article we’re all commenting on here. Another thing we’re all addicted to and is not entirely only affecting children but also adults alike.

I think you are also touching on impulse control which does get into mental health area which is another topic overlooked area when parenting and acknowledgment in what kind of limits should be nuanced from kid to kid. They are individuals. Not a hive mind.

Oh ok so you suggest a society to ban kids from using phones for the fact they can’t control themselves then. What a Wonderful lazy solution.

you’re so convinced that all it takes is forbidding it so we run a society of forbidding children from phones for fear they can’t even monitor themselves rather than educate? Is that your solution?

cuz of the ‘you invented it and there for i can’t help myself’ ? Are you really buying into that shit excuse?

all because of a click bait article?

Cuz this is the precise lazy parent approach rather than educating them I’m talking about here.

Part of battling that isn’t obtusely buying into these kind of stupid manipulative excuses and rolling up your sleeves getting involved with the nuances.

Pipe bombs were easily made because of access to things in the kitchen.

And smokes are easy access as are alcohol… Some Kids mark the bottle to hide they were drinking it. Some Kids hide they smoke possibly even today. Reason why there’s incense.

And guns are also easily accessed. Some child related deaths in 80s and 90s in the US because guns weren’t locked up. Now a kid can get one from Walmart and shoot up a school.

But a lot of this can be shit patents with magical thinking that don’t know how to educate their kids and just leave it up to the legal age so the child gets overwhelmed with being an adult magically knowing all the things.

Cuz that doesn’t seem to be a factor here in the discussion.

And that’s an important one.

Maybe a lot of why the political climate is what it is is for one: lazy parenting. Includes not holding people accountable for making decisions they are capable of making for themselves and instead helicopter the shit out of it till lowest denominator kids learn to get away with manipulative shit like “you let me” excuses like you just did.

we done comparing all generations to their lowest common denominator?

Cuz I know not every child is getting up to this shit.

And I know every not child uses this bullshit excuse.

They learned pronouns easy enough. They can hear other words too to gain understanding of what the world is.

Not poop? Oh silly me I thought they were using the dildos in the butt. But ok this is different.

No but they use these things even with warnings. And certainly use chatgpt where possible to avoid learning despite being warned.(lots of teachers have been very vocal about this). That’s a self made choice even with education about the choice.

kids in previous generations experimented with pipe bombs (which they didn’t invent the idea) and blew off their hands.

These kids were warned not to.

Yet not all kids play with pipe bombs and lose their hands. Hmm. Almost like kids are capable of individually accepting education about the choices they make.

So I guess no, you don’t have to invent the thing to be partial to be compliant if even fully certain in your own demise.

they don’t arrest child traffickers and rapists.

No no, it’s the child at fault for being at risk around them.

Alls I know is it isn’t ichiban noodles. I ate those for 3 straight weeks and almost lost my nails and hair.

Nutrition is really important yo. Eat your veggies and balance your fibre and protein.

Kid’s performance of dancing pathetically on that stage all alone looked like a reject at his own party he paid a total of 75$ to throw.

And watch out it might fly out those jorts

Reason: bots. It’s being moderated by shitty bots.

Bots. Bots every where. Bots moderating. Bots posting. Bots responding.

Dunno, don’t eat it

All Linux. No Amazon. Support local. Hosting my own pages, servers and not using online clouds. Changing habits on what sites to use to avoid AWS where possible

Aren’t these the same people who believe in a rodent to tell them how long winter is?

Ok homeland security, good luck arresting all them AI bots.

Maybe it’s you who has bo and just can’t smell it. Everyone else has been hinting.

It looked like it was originally meant to censore word much smalller

agreed. Ai itself is good such as helping with diagnosis and running simulations for theories.

Ai art is entirely plaigerism and it is completely misused there.

I have the same disappointment with plastic use. Great in Medicine and other sciences and technology. Completely misused in almost everything else for every day use.
