lol my b I thought the s***dog posts were urs too for some reason

I respect religion/spirituality and its tenets way more than I would ever respect an algorithm designed to abuse dopamine receptors

I wouldn’t want my kids on social media until high school but once they get a phone how do you stop them?

Maybe you force them to give you their password to social media accounts until they’re old enough but they’ll probably make another account

Not looking forward to having to navigate through that in the future

facts fr 🤝🤝

Because it plays on faith lol

I don't say it's all just trash brainwashing, I love how churchs give kids much needed free programs and have many programs to help adults too, soup kitchens and all that is awesome. I used to volunteer at a church I grew up by doing that and I wasnt religious at all

but at the end of the day religion toys with faith and beliefs on how you must live your life with an ultimate punishment to keep you in line. It can literally change the way you view anything in life based on repeated ideals so I get it but online it's so f***ing overstated and if religion helps some people, that's a good thing

Respond to evil with good lmao ya ok Islam

Your mother begs to differ

Headass

These atheists on here are delusional

If you believe something is true and good for your kids why would you not teach them...

Seeing kids being iPad kids is hard to watch

I think by the time that I finally have kids it’ll be hard to do, but I’ll work hard for them to have a balance. I won’t let em on tiktok though, maybe when they hit middle school

screen time parental controls have gotten a lot better but i feel that any kid truly determined to get online will find a way lol

at the end of the day u just gotta level with them as best as possible and hope they understand

I got my first actual iPhone when I was in 9th grade lol

Before that I just had an iPod touch with no service on it and an iPad at home. So either way if I wanted to use the internet, I’d have to wait till I get home

Nothing wrong with the app itself, I hope to raise my child in a way the algorithm sees the type of person they are and provide good, beneficial content.

same and in retrospect it was probably a negative influence besides some social aspects

talking about a algorithm like this is crazy 😭

i have faith in the algorithm to provide for my child

I mean it’s realistic is it not

not really since the algorithm is designed to monopolize your attention, no matter how good of a person you are

Idk I’ve been thru more than several TikTok accounts and each time it’s provided content reflecting my current mindset.
It’s not gonna give you content it knows doesn’t apply to your interest. So if your interest is messy underclass s*** it will provide which I hope to prevent

its low value content no matter how productive it might seem tbh

These threads today reopened my eyes to the horror that ktt users can and will breed.

Nahhhh
ReligionTok, philosophyTok, gymTok and many more are amazing. Again if your goal is positive it will catch on, if negative that too

Y’all never been in JesusTok and it shows
