Need to add illegal gambling to the list
Naw, crime is legal now.
What's worse?
Illegal gambling in traditional sense (poker, dice, slots, etc) or legal gambling loopholes like video game lootboxes? 🤔
Probably loot boxes since it more directly targets children
Much like flavored tobacco or alcoholic drinks directly target children. /s
Downvote but no argument? It's exactly the same kind of logic being used to push age verification laws.
Protecing children is a parents job first and foremost, all the excuses I hear from parents read to me like maybe you shouldn't have had children if you can't dedicate the time to educating yourself and watching over their activities to a minimal degree.
All the laws being proposed and implemented generally just impact adults much more then children anyway.
