It is very uncharitable, because you are cherry-picking things, I cant not write the complexity of life in a post. Your making up stuff that I havent stated.

And poeple who shouldn't have kids do have kids, that is reality. And even if you ave parents that are not the ideal parent, do you think kids should suffer for that. Because in the real world we do laws that are only ment to protect people from stuff that is harmful.

So you are advokating that alcohol should not have legal age limit, because parents are responsible for their kids? Seatbelts why have laws for that, drugs, hey because you as a person and kid, parent should know it's bad.

Why even have school be mandatory, parents are responsible to teach their kids how to read and write (because that has worked great right).

this is how you argue.

Quite the strawman you have there.

You are creating things I didn't say to argue against, like saying I created a strawman.

I cherry picked nothing. You specifically said that there is nothing parents can do because people much smarter than them are working against them

Actual quotes by you

are you confident that regular parents have a chance of competing with them

This is very much a throw your hands up in the air comment

just commenting on the troupe that parents is responsible for their own kids

Calling the expectation that parents actually parent their kid is a trope

the reality is that they don't know what impact it has on their kids mental health and how damaging short term dopamine addiction is for their children

As I pointed out to refute this, we indeed do know what dopamine addiction does to children

Still parenting is hard, especially when you are competing with phds in behavioral science or psychologists that help these platforms design their addiction mechanism.

Again. This is throwing your hands up in the air. It more or less says, I can't properly parent my kid because people smarter than me are working against me.

Not understanding the tech is an excuse. You can take classes. Watch videos. Join a parent group. Find people who do understand the tech. But throwing your hands up and saying you will rely on the government, is abdication of responsibility because for every law passed, the assholes will pay some governmental stooge to build in 3 loopholes and things are no better.

These laws you want are just D.A.R.E. 2.0 and they'll work just as well.
