    I agree, but unless you don't let kids have friends, they will have access.

    my parents tried many times to revoke my access.

    The typical workarounds involved a trip to the dump to dig up some godforsaken machine, and maybe stopping by the library to burn an iso. Wireless adapter lacks an antenna? No problem, I'll rig up a coat hanger/paperclip/random piece of wire.

    Don’t let your kids hang out with those who have parents you don’t know and don’t trust. It has worked for Christian parents for decades and it worked for my lesbian parents growing up in the conservative south.

    Want to adopt more.
    I am responsible enough to supervise their internet usage, and they know to ask me permission to record themselves online with masks & filters.
