Why stop there................lets ban EVERYTHING that could be bad for kids up to 14.......cause at the end of the day it's all about the kiddos Soda, too much sugar No fast food, too much fat and poison No candy, its not healthy Cannot be in a moving car, it could crash You can't have long hair, you look like a hippie. No food with preservatives, you can only eat organic No TV, there's bad stuff on there No summer camps, could be pedo`s in the woods waiting to groom you kid No riding a bike, you could fall off PS - I did all these things plus played the sickest video games around and you know what happened........................nothing. Tell ya what, I will raise my kids to be the smart, caring people they are, and the government can stay the hell out of my house...........if you need the government to help you raise your kid, that's on you. To many wall flowers trying to their kid's best friend............man up and be a parent and you don't need the government to "regulate" this type of BS
OK once you have calmed down, will you realize that all Florida did in comparison to most states is to raise the minimum age from 13 to 14? Still outraged?
Utah and Arkansas, but there are more initiatives ongoing. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/01/13/kids-online-states-social-media-00135390 https://gizmodo.com/9-states-kids-social-media-block-age-gate-social-media-1850567724/slides/2 COPPA (federal) basically prohibits sites from signing up kids under 13 without parental permission. https://pedialliance.com/socialmediaguide
Yeah, your OUTRAGE doesn't impress me. If you had kids 13 and younger you really want to have social media accounts, you may find ways, I don't care. I suspect you don't.
Typical you. You make an unproven assertion then deflect when you can't prove it. In every single state, except Florida now, a child can have can have a social media account with parental consent. You miss the point. Florida is becoming the nanny state the GOP says it hates.
If you were the type of bad parent (I suspect you don't have kids) who insists on his kid aged 13 or under having an Instagram account, you can surely find ways. Your OUTRAGE does not impress me at all.
Not outraged ATW, that wasn't directed at you per say, I used to be a republican and I was ALL for the government staying out of our bedroom and our homes. I think its overreach when the government tells me what I can and can't do with my kids, I don't care if it's just optics, do some real work in the government and lay off trying to legislate how people live. Sorry , if that came off as a personal attack.......this just fires me up
Again. Avoiding the point. I want the right to allow my kids to have a social media account, if I as their parent so choose. It is legal for a parent to purchase a firearm for their 10 year old child, yet somehow Florida wants to ban the right for a parent to consent to the child having a social media account. However, this will be all for naught as it will get overturned. Governor Boots will cost the taxpayers millions in legislation for a law he knows will be overturned. He is taking a page out of Abbott's book.
But it is the law. What's next? Banning sodas for children because there is a large risk for childhood obesity?
I just find it hypocritical from atw to get triggered that the government was infringing upon his parental rights forcing the mask mandate down his throat and now all of a sudden is fine with the government doing the exact same sht with this social media restriction. Either u are for parental rights or not. Goes to show the my body my choice stance or parents should have the right to choose for their kid not the government is just something Republicans like to toot until the government restrict something they like or agree with. Oh u can't force mask on my kid but sure it's fine restricting social media access. Hypocrite.
If you cannot understand the difference between forcing a toddler to wear a mask all day and a kid going through the immense and cruel hardship of not being allowed to sign up for Instagram or TikTok...I cannot help you, you have a totally broken value system.
Seriously? You are comparing apples and oranges there. A child on social media doesn't affect you or anyone else outside that household. Period. A broken value system is when people want to stop some parent for allowing their child on social media, but those same people didn't give a damn who they contaminated with COVID during the height of a pandemic. A broken value system is when people made light of doctors, nurses, and scientists pleading for everyone to be safe as people died in tents, because hospitals were full, while some clown as President encouraged large crowds, scoffed at the death count, and pushed rebellion against COVID spreading warnings. A broken value system is when some Texas as*hole politician says Grandma can die of COVID to give her grandkids freedom. A broken value system is some selfish jerk punching some poor stewardess, waitress, or store clerk in the face because they asked them to wear a mask, in an attempt to protect others who might be exposed, or at a much higher risk and vulnerable to dying of COVID.
a broken value system is where you make fun of an 80 year old man who was assaulted in his own home with a hammer and accuse him of being gay.
Parental rights only seem to matter to u for only certain things it seems. Spin it anyway u want u just come off like a hypocrite
