Kids can and should be treated different than adults, they don’t always know better. The internet is basically unfiltered for all. Should it remain unfiltered for the more vulnerable youth, or just let them get crushed?
Kids now know better, just ask them. O wait it’s always been that way If they don’t get what they want.
