How are these children hearing about these products in the first place?
YouTube is not a place for children.
- recursive 2y agoIf you think kids watching youtube are outliers, I've got some shocking news.
- dylan604 2y agoWhich rock have you been living under? Parents used TV as a baby sitter. Parents then used VHS/DVDs as a baby sitter. Parents then used YouTube as a babysitter. It's just the next step on the ladder.
- drawkward 2y agoSchools use chromebooks as a babysitter/"teaching device"
- aidenn0 2y agoMy local elementary school gave every kid a chromebook and refused to take it away from my son when he was watching YT videos instead of doing classwork. We had to get him diagnosed with ADHD and file under the Americans with Disabilities Act to require the teacher take away the chromebook if he was using it for non-school related activities.
- drawkward 2y agoSame story for my kid, sadly.
- gwbas1c 2y agoGet a life. Some of my kids' favorite videos are on Youtube. As many flaws as the platform has, Youtube breaks down gatekeepers because anyone can upload a video.
- skynr 2y agoBecause children have access to technology in various ways shapes and forms from their earliest years. It is inescapable. Youtuve requires an internet browser and a connection. That's a hell of a low bar.
