My age group was tough for parents. Massive tech revolution that few parents had a good grasp of.

Pile that onto a family that has to work a ton of hours and has very little family time. Yeah its tough.

the games where wolves win most often on this site are the ones where either nobody does anything or there are 10k posts

I had fairly not-practically-restricted internet access but I was never traumatised by it, really. The most upsetting things that happened to me were things that couldā€™ve happened with real-life friends.

when I was a kid (like, pre-high-school, they basically stopped doing this in high school and honestly kind of stopped in middle school) my parents restricted how much time I used the internet for, but basically didnā€™t restrict what I used it for

well I guess Mom did tell me that if I wanted to use FFN to find fanfic I needed to filter out stories that were rated Mature? but like she didnā€™t tell me not to go use FFN to find random stories

I remember growing up and mobile phones had just started to become a trend for teenagers. And really only if your parents had decent money. When I was young, it was mostly every kid carrying a gameboy around.

I bet it was hard for parents to really grasp kids having internet access 24/7

Itā€™s not like eight year olds donā€™t tell each other much worse stories than the gorey copypastas peopleā€™d send on the Howrse Dot Com forums
