We're really far from the point now.

I'm a millennial parent and I know how the internet works. I also know that every app nowadays has parental controls built in. Moreso, I can specifically block things on the router.

Remember how you found ways to circumvent those things in your youth without your parents knowing? Guess what? Kids still do that. Parental controls only work on children who lack creativity.

You aren't going to be there 100% of the time for your kids. No parent would be. It would be abusive to be present 100% of the time. You're going to trust your kids with a certain level of autonomy, and they're occasionally going to do things with that autonomy that you disapprove of; that's an important part of growing up. Maybe it's swearing, maybe it's getting into fights, maybe it's cheating on homework, or maybe it's buying lootboxes. You can't block everything.

Nobody's saying that you shouldn't try to prevent your kids from falling into these traps. By all means, you should. But you shouldn't expect to be successful 100% of the time. You're going to slip. They're going to slip. That's life.

However, the fucking CHILD CASINO still exists. Maybe you can keep your kids out of it, but there are still kids getting addicted to gambling because nobody is shutting down the child casino. The fact that it exists, at all, should be appalling to any parent; but instead, some of them are defending it because "ohh but they did some good things for Linux gaming". Get real, my guy.
