Totally agree that parents need to take responsibility. Although this (thankfully) is changing quickly, many parents don’t understand the harms. What’s the big deal with fun dances snd funny videos? When a company is doing this level of harm at such a scale, and doing everything they can to hide it from parents, I don’t see a major problem with banning it.
Suppose a food company creates a food that is highly addictive but also toxic and targeted at children. (Honestly this is probably already happening - is a pop tart or a taki even food?) I don’t see a problem with banning that food. This is analogous to the TikTok situation, in my view.
Actually I think the better justification for banning it is that it’s a tool of the Chinese government to use soft power to manipulate, spy on, and stupidly jot only our children but our entire citizenry. In my mind that’s root reason we should ban it - the fact that it would minimize its impact on our kids is a positive second order effect.

quoting note1lrd…xc94What else do you want the government to ban? How about we as parents take a little personal responsibility.
Very unbased, not 1st principals take IMO.
