  • Charge parents with neglect if they should have been expected to notice and respond to problems. That should be a jailable offense.

    Great, send everyone to jail. Overcrowd prisons and put children into care. All because a parent let their child on social media…

    I’m more saying the age limit is clumsy here

    It isn’t. We have age limits for all kinds of things. How should this be any different?

    Social media is completely different though, since parents are in direct control of the devices their kids have access to at home, and what’s available on their home network. Parents have the power to handle this themselves, so they should be expected to do so.

    Parents can also control whether children buy alcohol, yet we still have restrictions on children.


  • I didn’t insult you, I remarked that you didn’t appear to have understood my comment, and by the looks of it you still don’t.

    Apologies if you’re upset by my comment. That was not my intent. I was just pointing out the absurdity of your judgemental comment.

    I’m not the one taking issue with something I don’t own. That’s my entire point. You are discouraging someone from wanting something just because you personally don’t value it.

    The piano is the headphone jack.

    You don’t need a headphone jack, and feel the need to disparage others who do. “I don’t use a headphone jack, so you shouldn’t want a phone with one.”

    Similarly, I don’t need a piano. However, I don’t go around telling people they shouldn’t want/play one, because I recognise that the things I want in my life are different to the things other people want in theirs.
