( No Title )
the notes on any post about kids and the internet are always so rancid first of all even if monitoring and surveilling them ‘worked’ it would be damaging and not just to those with outright abusive parents. second of all i can tell that some of you were not subjected to rigid internet surveillance growing up because if you were you would know all it does is encourage more sophisticated forms of sneakiness and discourage open conversation, including of things online that may be genuinely disturbing to the kid. “oh but there’s fucked up shit online” yes and you are in fantasyland if you think increased parental control protects from that
