Until A is 18, she cannot have any facebook/Instagram/tiktok (we are raising her to know better than to download a propaganda machine from the CCP)/Snapchat etc. I like social media for staying connected. It has its uses and can be entertaining for a while. But it has a devastating impact on developing minds. I can’t prevent her from using social media as an adult. But as long as she is underage, she will not be on these apps. I don’t want her exposed to drug dealers or predators. I don’t want her body image and self esteem get destroyed by the constant comparison trap. I don’t want her to become egotistical either. There’s nothing good about kids on social media – not that I have found anyway. Right now, she is young enough that she doesn’t care. She gets on YouTube kids, but that’s it. Youtube if we are more closely monitoring. But eventually she may want these apps. She might ask. But I will not say yes.
Society would be better off if we didn’t have social media while our brains are still developing and maturing. And please keep your kids off of TikTok! It is a propaganda machine for the Chinese communist party. They want to destroy our youth. They want to sap our strength. That’s why they push LGBTQIA content so hard. And junk food. And pornographic images. Anti American screeds from college freshmen. Tiktok is destroying us, and everywhere I look around. I see Mother’s in their 30s like me playing on it themselves, plus letting their kids on it. Some of them call themselves content creators and don’t want to give up the income or the income they are hoping for. Some are so lost in mainstream media brainwashing that it’s too late for them. Their brains have rotted from disuse. Some just do not care. But the majority just want it for fun, consequences be damned. But the consequences – destroyed children, destroyed culture – are too enormous to be ignored.
