''oh the kids will be outside more! they'll go outside!!' babes a teenage girl was stabbed in the throat walking home not even a week ago. theres a rape in the headlines every other day. it is literally NOT SAFE out there!!! are you mental!!
told my teenage coworker i’m going to a concert next week and he went “you’re probably gonna go see some old shit like simon and garfunkel” and he was right i’m seeing paul simon
doing this without investing in kid-friendly public spaces and programmes makes no sense whatsoever. all this is gonna do is push kids to use more fringe and unregulated social media apps
What are children actually supposed to do?
Like they have nowhere to go but home, everywhere costs too much money and they have no experience socially navigating without social media.
This just isolates abused, bullied and minority children.
It is literally insane simultaneously to think that 16 and 17 year olds are mature enough to vote but not mature enough to look at Instagram at 8:30pm. This is comically absurd.
@PolitlcsUK@thetimes How can they possibly justify simultaneously lowering the voter age to 16, while cutting all 16 year olds off from non-government media & commentary.
