Late night doom scrolling and now I'm depressed 😩 This is why I don't let my kids have unrestricted access to social media. Parents need to wake up.
your solution is more censorship? Nah, education is the answer. Porn has always existed, just gotta teach kids it's not real life.
Oh here we go again. Another story blaming porn for everything. Kids have been finding this stuff since magazines under the bed. Maybe teach some critical thinking instead?
nah get stuffed. I monitor my kid's phone and they still find stuff. It's everywhere. Parents can't be on watch 24/7.
my 14yo came home talking about 'choking' the other day. scary stuff tbh. schools need to do better at sex ed, not just leave it to algorithms
As a parent I'm glad this series exists. We can't pretend this isn't happening. It's better to have the awkward conversation than let kids figure it out from watching violent crap online.

ffs another 'think of the children' article. Maybe if we actually taught proper sex ed instead of abstinence garbage we wouldn't be here.
this. My school sex ed was a joke. We need proper consent and respect taught, not just 'don't do it'.
The real issue is social media algorithms pushing this stuff on minors. I've seen recommended content on tiktok that is basically softcore porn. How is that ok??
all these comments blaming parents lol i guarantee half of you let your 10yo have an ipad unsupervised whatever
Exactly! It's not about banning stuff, it's about algorithms targeting kids with extreme content for engagement. That's the problem.
