I really don't give a fuck if I make people upset over it. But screen time for toddlers is ABSOLUTELY FUCKING INSANE. pay attention to what people show their kids. the VIDEOS ARE LITERALLY HYPNOTIC ULTRA SATURATED WITH SPECIFIC TIME CLIP SCHEDULES & SOUNDS
Many users condemned parents for using hypnotic toddler screen-time videos and apps as babysitters, calling the practice lazy, exploitative, and damaging to children.

strapping in your toddler to ultra a/b tested mega optimized hyper stimuli and telling other parents that it's okay, because the one person (out of the team of 50) has a "behavioral psychology degree" while she hypnotically plays sounds and switches scenes every 5 seconds

what are YOU DOING GIVE YOUR CHILDREN SOME BLOCKS OR SOMETHING OR ANYTHING AT ALL. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE

@yacineMTB I agree. But I think there’s a dangerous flip side where you end up with someone who is uniquely susceptible to the mind virus because they have no antibodies. Ideally they should find that kind of content innately uninteresting.

@HumanClanker i have minecraft youtube playing all the time on my TV. The Mrs. Rachel Coco Melon poison is qualitatively different stuff

whatever man. not my kid lol

@HumanClanker @yacineMTB I honestly don't think there are any antibodies for this yet. I'm with @yacineMTB on this; little kids need simple physical objects to manipulate. They need to have a solid grasp on how to move and work in the physical world before you start throwing the internet at them.

@yacineMTB they are lazy and passing it down

@yacineMTB Once in a while you tweet something great. This is one of those while’s

@yacineMTB kids picture show and shopkin blind bag opening heh. kids can learn to read on their own because blind bags with several possible names written there for brain to predict what's in the bag is literally GPT

@yacineMTB The worst are the ads, they literally run 1-2 hour ads. If parents don’t notice babies are just consuming ads

@yacineMTB Children's with phones is insane, it's ruining them. All of it. I can understand with UK is banning the shit, I don't agree with how but i get the concern.
It's public health issue, we are ruining our children

@yacineMTB @HumanClanker Some of that stuff is brain mush inducing

@yacineMTB No shit, it's not new, people want kids but don't want to parent, it's been happening since computers were easily obtained for an average family for windows95, it's just worse nowadays.

@yacineMTB 💯

@yacineMTB Needs a bit more nuance. Little Bear /= DannyGo
One is fine for a short episode when they don’t have another option available.
The other makes it so they can’t even hold still to answer a question.

@yacineMTB I've heard a lot of the big names in tech won't let their kids on any screen... that tells me a lot.

@yacineMTB As much as we want it to be something, digital is still nothing.

@HumanClanker @yacineMTB His freaking out wasn't the source of pride of course, what was was the fact that we'd managed to keep him away from commercials and the constant attention grabbing crap for so long.
He's 17 now and still finds regular TV impossible to watch, just like his old man.

@yacineMTB If you want to get your kid into MIT you have to RL them early
