IMO, children shouldn't be allowed on the internet, period.

I agree so much. Kids should be growing up in healthy environments, kids these days are being raised on computers. 3 year olds have a tablet in their hand before they can even read. They should be going out and having fun, not sitting around staring at a fucking screen like I do all the time. I remember when I was a kid, I would go over to people's houses, build forts, go play with pretend guns we'd make ourselves in the park. That's what being a kid is about, not learning about fucking bdsm on google and looking at memes all day.

I'm not coming from the perspective that "kids should be kids", but moreso that the internet just isn't an appropriate place for them, both for their sake and everyone else's. Some of the most annoying people I've ever come across on the internet are under 18, and most of those under 16.

I'm sick of fucking stupid parents pushing our Government to restrict the internet more and more because they can't raise their wombspawn properly. Like, the child is the parent's responsibility, not the Goverment's or ours. Do your fucking duty as a parent instead of blaming everyone else when you/they fuck up.
