I was surprised to read those posts re: YouTube Kids. My daughter has watched a few thousand hours of YT Kids over the last two years while she's been bed-ridden with leukemia. My wife or I have been within earshot for almost all of it. 99% of what she watched was human made content and the most risque thing she saw was a video where a "host" pretended to make some stuffed animal poop gumballs. A good chunk was actually educational—she went on a kick learning how to make healthy smoothies and learning about the solar system, state capitols, etc. Perhaps we've just been extraordinarily lucky, but the reporting re: TY Kids this week reminds me of the 1980s panic around Dungeons and Dragons.
